Explanation of names of zipped files for 1993 Issue 7 and later:

  DSNymA = Developer Support News 199y issue m ASCII (plain-text)
  DSNymI = Developer Support News 199y issue m .INF  (use OS/2 VIEW)
  DSNymP = Developer Support News 199y issue m .PS   (PostScript)

where y = last digit of year (3, 4, ...)
      m = issue represented as alpha (1=A, ..., 7=G, 8=H, ...)

For example, DSN3GI is 1993 issue 7 (=G), the 15 October issue, in .INF
format (after being unzipped).

      | IBM's New OS/2 Warp Opens Worlds of Computing to Users | annwarp
      +--------------------------------------------------------+

IBM is delivering on its promise to bring the power of its OS/2
operating system to millions of new users.

The third generation of IBM's award-winning 32-bit operating system has
impressive new usability features and slimmed-down system requirements,
and comes with a BonusPak of more than a dozen popular applications,
including easy access to Internet and CompuServe via the IBM Information
Superhighway.

Warp Preloads
-------------

IBM also announces that OS/2 Warp will come preloaded on systems from
the IBM PC Co., Toshiba, CompuAdd, and other PC manufacturers, and that
Dell will offer Warp as a preload option to customers when they order
PCs.

Warp has all the multitasking, crash-protecting power of OS/2; runs
32-bit and 16-bit DOS, Windows, and OS/2 applications; requires as
little as 4 MB of memory; and will be available in two editions.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 will ship in mid-October for users who already have
DOS or Windows, with a list price of 129 USD, and an expected retail
price of less than 80 USD. The second, "fullpack" edition, for users
without Windows, will be available shortly thereafter at a list price of
199 USD, and an expected retail price of less than 130 USD. Both
editions will ship with the BonusPak of popular applications.

"If you're not using Warp, you're not getting the most out of your PC,"
said Lee Reiswig, president, IBM Personal Software Products. "We've
improved a time- and market-tested product, giving customers more
features at a greater value without giving up any of OS/2's power. The
product's ease of use and small memory requirements make it attractive
to mobile users, medium and small businesses, and home users. For PC
users, Warp is the right product at the right time."

Ground-Breaking Software + Service
----------------------------------

The Internet offering draws on IBM's expertise and networking
technologies from several IBM organizations, including PSP, Networking
Software, Software Solutions, and IBM Global Network, to provide a
ground-breaking software and service combination for customers who can
benefit from this valuable electronic resource.

For connected environments, OS/2 Warp contains the foundation necessary
for customers who need a versatile desktop client.

Everyone Gets a BonusPak
------------------------

A new BonusPak now ships with every copy of the operating system, giving
users the immediate opportunity to experience the advantage of native
OS/2 applications. In addition to a variety of popular applications, the
BonusPak includes a choice of utilities for intuitive access to the
Internet and other online services by clicking on the IBM Information
Superhighway icon.

"In today's business community, the Internet is as important as the
worldwide telephone system and the worldwide postal system," said Harley
Hahn, consultant and author of The Internet Complete Reference and The
Internet Yellow Pages. "Companies of all types are creating a presence
on the Net, and many businesses find that a well-connected Internet
address is as much a necessity as a fax machine or even a telephone. For
such businesses, it is crucial that Internet tools be reliable, easy to
use, and built into the system software."

Internet Connection for OS/2
----------------------------

Internet Connection for OS/2 includes TCP/IP communications software,
Internet access utilities such as Gopher, File Transfer Protocol,
Telnet, NewsReader, and a graphical web browser called WebExplorer. The
package includes three free hours of Internet access. The web browser,
which helps users navigate the Net, will be available for download to
subscribers in November. This utility also provides one-button
registration and access to the IBM Global Network.

CompuServe Information Manager for OS/2
---------------------------------------

CompuServe Information Manager for OS/2 allows users to access
information, book travel, download games, or participate in the many
electronic bulletin boards available on this popular online service.

HyperACCESS Lite for OS/2
-------------------------

Hilgraeve's HyperACCESS Lite for OS/2, a popular communications product,
gives users easy access to a variety of other online services, PCs, and
mainframes.

IBM Works
---------

A core component of the BonusPak is IBM Works, an object-based suite of
applications for word processing, database, charting, graphics,
spreadsheet, report writing, and personal information management. They
are easy to use, and maximize the inherent power of the 32-bit OS/2
operating environment.

FaxWorks
--------

With FaxWorks, users can send a fax from within an application or from
the desktop. Because the application takes advantage of IBM's System
Object Model (SOM), users just drag documents from an application and
drop them on the fax icon for truly simple faxing.

Person to Person for OS/2
-------------------------

Person to Person for OS/2 is a real-time, virtual whiteboard that allows
up to eight users in different locations to view and revise the same
document simultaneously. Without leaving their desks, users can achieve
the efficiency, productivity, and personal interaction of a face-to-face
meeting.

System Installation Made Easy
-----------------------------

Warp features a one-button installation that loads the software,
identifies the hardware, and configures the system. There is also an
advanced installation option for users who want to customize and
fine-tune the software to meet specific requirements.

"Installation was a snap," said Robert Malmquist, an electronics
specialist in Lincoln, Nebraska. "Basically, I just turned it loose and
let it install itself."

Tutorial
--------

To help users understand what the product can really do for them, Warp
provides an online, context-sensitive tutorial with "practice" and
"do-it" buttons which reduce learning time. The tutorial can be invoked
from anywhere in the operating system, or from applications running on
it. For Windows users, the tutorial offers a view of OS/2 Warp functions
from a Windows perspective, to demonstrate the advantage of working the
Warp way.

Graphics are Great in the Workplace Shell
-----------------------------------------

IBM has made significant enhancements to its acclaimed Workplace Shell
interface. Animated icons give users a visual representation of system
operations, and a symphony of new sounds accompanies user interaction
with the desktop. The OS/2 Warp LaunchPad, a floating tool bar on the
desktop, gives users easy access to often-used applications, which can
be launched with a click of the mouse.

"I really like the Warp LaunchPad," said Marc Slifkin of Leviton
Manufacturing, Little Neck, NY. "I like the fact that you can archive
the desktop and the INI files. You get a lot more options with this --
even a command line. It's really handy, and helps me work faster. As
far as being user-friendly, it's great."

Users can drag-and-drop application icons onto the tool bar to easily
customize it. To reduce desktop clutter, when a folder is opened from
within another folder, the parent folder can close.

Plug & Play for PCMCIA
----------------------

Warp also features a Plug & Play for PCMCIA utility that recognizes
which PCMCIA cards are in use. Users can plug in their PCMCIA cards
while the system is running, and the utility will recognize the card
without a reboot. Users also can designate an application to be launched
when a certain type of PCMCIA card is inserted. For example, a fax
application can be auto-launched when a fax-modem card is inserted.

Mobile users will appreciate the modem output suspension. While working
remotely, users can queue up faxes, print jobs, and outgoing E-mail for
execution when the computer is later plugged in to its connected
environment.

Multimedia and Games
--------------------

To make Warp the ultimate games platform, IBM has identified more than
100 of the best-selling DOS and Windows game titles, and has
incorporated settings for each into the base operating system. Games are
given a high-performance boost when they run on Warp, because the
operating system has been optimized for them.

Warp includes the high-performance multimedia support necessary to
transform a PC into a television, or a photo-storage system. Multimedia
tools include Eastman Kodak Photo CD support, IBM Person to Person for
OS/2, a multimedia viewer, WIN/TV card support, new audio device
drivers, Ultimedia Video IN for OS/2, and industry-leading audio/video
synchronization and stretching technology. These capabilities make OS/2
the ideal operating system for CD-ROM-based educational programs and
games.

Multimedia Application Development
----------------------------------

For multimedia application developers, IBM also has included MPEG
support, a single DIVE API, built-in autodesk animation playback support
and compressed audio support.

4 MB of Memory
--------------

Hardware requirements for OS/2 Warp include a 386SX or higher processor
with 4 MB of memory. OS/2 Warp will allow OS/2, Windows 3.1 and its
updates, Windows for Workgroups 3.1, and DOS applications to run on the
same desktop.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 Description
-------------------------------

OS/2 Warp Version 3 is the follow-on release to OS/2 Version 2.1 and
OS/2 for Windows. It represents IBM's continuing effort to enhance this
award-winning operating system to appeal to a much broader segment of
the personal computer environment.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 has simplified installation, enhanced usability, a
refined user interface, and improved fit-and-finish, and is
performance-tuned to run on entry memory systems. In addition, new
hardware support is included for mobile computers, CD-ROM drives, SCSI
adapters, printers, audio devices, and video accelerators.

A BonusPak for OS/2, with a set of productivity applications and online
connection software, is included with OS/2 Warp Version 3, so you can
use your system immediately after installation.

All of these features make OS/2 Warp Version 3 ideally suited to home,
home office, and mobile users, while maintaining value to corporate
customers.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 is released in two editions:

o OS/2 Warp Version 3
o OS/2 Warp Version 3 with WinOS2

OS/2 Warp Version 3 is the replacement for OS/2 for Windows. OS/2 Warp
Version 3 with WinOS2 is the replacement for OS/2 Version 2.1.

OS/2 Warp Version 3, when installed over an existing Windows 3.1 or its
updates, Windows for Workgroups 3.1, or Windows for Workgroups 3.11,
will work with the Windows code, enabling the system to run OS/2, DOS,
and Windows application programs simultaneously and seamlessly on the
same display. When installed on a system without Windows, OS/2 Warp
Version 3 will run OS/2 and DOS programs.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 with WinOS2 ships with all the support necessary to
run OS/2, DOS, and Windows programs without Windows previously
installed. Windows for Workgroups 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups 3.11
networking function is not supported.

Usability Enhancements
----------------------

The new LaunchPad is a customizable tool bar on the desktop that allows
access to any object on the system with a single mouse click. The
LaunchPad can be in either vertical or horizontal orientation, or be set
to float to the top of the desktop. The LaunchPad is added automatically
during installation, and can use either regular-sized icons or the new
mini color icons. Users can add their most frequently used objects to
the LaunchPad, including folders, printers, or any object on the system,
and access them or switch between open objects with a single mouse
click.

A tutorial takes the user through an introduction to OS/2 Warp Version 3
and how to work with objects. It shows how to move, copy, create
shadows, and work with printers. It also explains how to set up OS/2,
DOS, and Windows applications. Each subject covered in the tutorial has
three levels of tips -- one for the DOS user, one for Windows users, and
one for the expert OS/2 user. The tutorial is in graphic format, and has
a very useful index and graphical help facility.

The Workplace Shell is enhanced with a new look. All of the icons are
redesigned in three-dimensional color. Many of the icons are animated;
for instance, an icon of a folder changes to an open folder when opened,
and back to a closed folder when closed. The default color palette is 16
solid colors, with a 256-color palette available for systems with SVGA
capability.

Installation Enhancements
-------------------------

OS/2 Warp Version 3 simplifies installation for most users. A new Easy
Install will install OS/2 Warp Version 3 in a configuration suitable for
most personal computers without asking the user additional questions. An
Advanced Install option helps experienced users customize their systems.

When installed over an existing DOS system, Dual Boot is automatically
installed, without requiring the user to modify the DOS CONFIG.SYS file
and to re-boot. The appropriate command lines are added automatically,
without a caution message.

Installation time is reduced significantly for diskette and CD-ROM
media. The number of OS/2 diskettes are reduced through state-of-the-art
compression and eXtended Density Format (XDF) technology. To reduce the
number of diskettes to be loaded, XDF allows 1.86 MB to be put onto
media that previously could contain a maximum of 1.44 MB.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 provides remote, unattended installation,
configuration, and distribution (CID). Multimedia is CID-enabled, but
requires an MINSTALL to activate it. The accompanying BonusPak for OS/2
is not CID-enabled.

Multimedia is integrated into OS/2 Warp Version 3, and installs
automatically when the appropriate system hardware is detected,
eliminating a separate installation process. The enhanced hardware
detection also simplifies installation of many system device drivers for
displays, hard disks, SCSI devices, CD-ROM drives, and PCMCIA cards.

Multiple printers can be installed during the initial installation,
significantly simplifying the process for those customers with multiple
printers.

DOS application program migration into OS/2 is expanded by the addition
of more than 300 popular DOS applications to the migration data base.
This allows OS/2 Warp Version 3 users to automatically configure their
DOS settings to be tuned for optimum performance, running simultaneously
and seamlessly with other applications.

The numeric error codes previously displayed when OS/2 installation
encountered a problem are replaced in most cases by an informational
message to direct the user to the cause of the problem.

Performance Enhancements
------------------------

OS/2 Warp Version 3 is extensively reprogrammed and tuned to operate
more responsively in any system memory configuration, but particularly
on 4 MB, entry-level personal computers.

PM-WIN, the desktop window management system, is now available in 32-bit
code to make screen response significantly better.

The Workplace Shell is enhanced to open objects faster, populate folders
faster, and load applications faster.

The system is page-tuned to ensure that the most frequently used pages
are in memory when needed, reducing the amount of swapping to the hard
disk.

An option in the WinOS2 setup folder, called Fast Load, basically
preloads and starts a Windows virtual machine, so that Windows
application programs load very quickly.

Enhanced Support for Displays
-----------------------------

The OS/2 Warp Version 3 package now includes 32-bit device drivers
supporting the graphics accelerator chips found on leading personal
systems and graphics adapters, such as Actix, Boca Research, Diamond,
Number Nine, Orchid, and others.

IBM has added new device drivers for these chip sets (in addition to the
IBM XGA, XGA-2, IBM 8514, and S3 86C801/805/928 chips already supported
OS/2 2.1 and OS/2 2.11):

o Cirrus Logic CL-GD5426, -5428, -5430, -5434
o S3 86C864, 86C964
o Western Digital WD90C24, WD90C26, WD90C27, WD90C31, WD90C33, WD90C34
o ATI Mach 32, Mach 64
o Tseng ET4000/32, W32i, W32p
o Weitek Power9000, Power9100

These graphics display drivers provide users with accelerated graphics
and advanced color resolutions when operated in Presentation Manager and
WinOS2 seamless and full-screen sessions.

Enhanced Support for CD-ROM Drives and Adapters
-----------------------------------------------

OS/2 Warp Version 3 now contains support for leading CD-ROM drives,
including proprietary, SCSI-based, and the new ATAPI-compliant CD-ROM
drives. (AT Packet Interface Version 2.1 is the industry initiative to
standardize CD-ROM attachment to IDE controllers).

The new device drivers included in the OS/2 Warp Version 3 package
include support for Chinon, IBM, Mitsumi, NEC, Panasonic, Philips (LMS),
Sony, Texel, Toshiba, and others.

Mobile Computer Support Enhancements
------------------------------------

OS/2 Warp Version 3 has many new features designed to support new
state-of-the-art hardware. Plug & Play for PCMCIA provides instant
configuration of PCMCIA devices such as fax modem cards, ATA hard-disk
drives, flash memory adapters, and token-ring or other network adapters.
This support allows hot plugging; the cards can be installed or changed
while the system is running, and the system will recognize, configure,
and initialize the card so that it is operational, without requiring
reconfiguration and rebooting. You can install or change PCMCIA cards
on-the-fly for maximum system flexibility.

OS/2 Warp Version 3 also features a comet cursor, the ability to adjust
the cursor for maximum visibility on mobile displays. The cursor can be
made bigger or smaller, or its color can be reversed for use with
monochrome displays.

                |    OS/2 Warp Brings High-Octane    |          warpgame
                | Performance to the PC Gaming World |
                +------------------------------------+

Fast action on the OS/2 platform!

IBM's newest 32-bit PC operating system, OS/2 Warp, provides users with
a new level of high-performance game play currently not available in the
DOS or Windows environments.

By fine-tuning special settings for more than 100 software game titles,
and adding new features such as improved audio/video synchronization and
enhanced memory management, OS/2 Warp delivers unprecedented speed and
improved realism to today's popular arcade-style, simulation, and
strategy games.

Tool for Game Development
-------------------------

A new development tool is designed to make it easy for developers to
quickly build exploitive native OS/2 Warp games. With the DIVE (Direct
Interface Video Extensions) programming tool, game developers have
direct access to the video drivers needed to perform high-speed animated
graphics that are critical for action-based games. A Game Developers
Toolkit for OS/2 Warp will be available in Beta in early 1995 to provide
additional development support.

"OS/2 Warp delivers top-notch multimedia functionality that appeals to
both novice and expert gamers," says Wally Casey, director of marketing
for IBM's Personal Software Products division. "Although games represent
the most resource-intensive software on the market today, OS/2 Warp's
memory management and synchronization features lessen the complexity of
game configuration and operation, and promote higher-performance play."

Built-In Memory Management
--------------------------

Since most games run on DOS, gamers are faced with the limitations of
the DOS environment. Common problems include lack of adequate memory,
system configuration issues, and the inability to run more than one
application at a time reliably. OS/2 Warp eliminates most memory
problems, makes system configuration easier, and allows multiple
application processing in a reliable environment. OS/2 Warp easily
enables gamers to take full advantage of the memory they have by
supporting most popular standards, such as EMS, XMS, DPMI, and high
memory.

Settings for Today's Popular Games
----------------------------------

To boost ease-of-use, IBM has identified over 100 of the best-selling
DOS, Windows, and OS/2 game titles, and has incorporated settings for
each game into the base OS/2 Warp operating system (see attached list).
Gamers no longer have to navigate system configuration and AUTOEXEC.BAT
files -- OS/2 Warp automatically chooses the proper game setting. Gamers
gain easy access to their favorite games with drag-and-drop speed.
Should gamers wish to manually change settings, OS/2 Warp's multiple
VDMs (Virtual DOS Machines) allow session configuration without having
to reboot the system or maintain separate boot diskettes.

The VDM technology also takes advantage of OS/2 Warp's Crash Protection,
multitasking, and memory management -- gamers can play while running
print jobs, faxing documents, or accessing a communications session,
without disrupting performance.

OS/2-Specific Games Under Development
-------------------------------------

Several OS/2-specific games designed to utilize the inherent stability
of the 32-bit operating system are in development, including Sim City
Classic for OS/2, Sim City 2000 for OS/2, Galactic Civilizations, and
DOOM for OS/2.

"Gamers playing Sim City 2000 for OS/2 will see increased performance
and smoother game play because of OS/2's multitasking capabilities. The
multitasking also enables gamers to work on other projects while their
simulator continues to run in the background," says Joe Scirica, vice
president, product development, MAXIS, Orinda, Calif. "We see OS/2 as a
great platform for games. Given IBM's lead on Windows 95, we also see
this as a real opportunity to gain market share."

"One key feature for a game with complex graphics and sound is
multithreading, which allows parallel running of different processes and
enhances overall performance," says Bob Adams, president, DUX Software
Corporation, Palo Alto, Calif., which has obtained the license to port
Sim City Classic for OS/2 from MAXIS. "Our excitement in porting Sim
City Classic for OS/2 came from the fact that we could develop into a
GUI environment that was built on a real 32-bit multiprocessing
networked operating system."

OS/2 Warp combines the performance and reliability of the 32-bit OS/2
environment with mobility and productivity features, such as simplified
installation, reduced memory requirements, a BonusPak of productivity
applications, Internet access, LaunchPad, and a more responsive user
interface. OS/2 Warp allows OS/2, Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11, Windows for
Workgroups 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, and DOS applications to run
on the same desktop.

----------------------------

The multimedia features that optimize the end-user experience include
Eastman Kodak Photo CD support, Person to Person for OS/2, a multimedia
viewer, WIN/TV card support, additional audio device drivers, Ultimedia
Video IN for OS/2, and industry-leading audio/video synchronization and
stretching technology. The combined multimedia capabilities make OS/2
Warp the ideal operating system environment for CD-ROM-based educational
programs and games.

MPEG Support
------------

Also included in OS/2 Warp is MPEG support, a single DIVE API, built-in
autodesk animation playback support, and compressed audio support, so
that OS/2 Warp offers a compelling development environment for
next-generation multimedia applications.

A Big Hit in Homes and Edutainment
----------------------------------

"We expect the multimedia features in OS/2 Warp to be a big hit in the
booming home office and edutainment markets," said Wally Casey, director
of marketing, IBM Personal Software Products division. "OS/2 Warp's
multimedia capabilities will change the way people use their computers.
For example, you will be able to have your daughter's birthday pictures
developed on a Kodak Photo CD, and send them electronically on OS/2 Warp
to family members across the country via OS/2 Warp's Internet features."

Optimizing the End-User Experience
----------------------------------

o Eastman Kodak Photo CD Technology

  Kodak's Photo CD technology, incorporated in OS/2 Warp, allows OS/2
  users to store and view high-resolution color images and photographs
  developed on Kodak Photo CDs. The ability to view these images makes
  OS/2 Warp an attractive program for the creation of business
  presentations, newsletters, and other documents, as well as for
  commercial multimedia programs for kiosks, sales, education, and
  training. OS/2 Warp is the first PC operating system to be Photo
  CD-enabled without additional software requirements.

o Person to Person for OS/2 Makes Collaborative Computing Easy

  Person to Person, IBM's real-time conferencing software, is integrated
  in the Warp BonusPak. Person to Person allows up to eight people to
  work together on a single document, sharing suggestions, and writing
  or drawing comments on the document on their PCs. Without leaving
  their desks, users can achieve the same level of efficiency, personal
  interaction, and productivity associated with traditional working
  sessions, saving time and reducing unnecessary business travel costs.
  By adding video cameras and an ActionMedia II adapter, users can host
  live teleconferences over existing networks.

o Browse Images with the Multimedia Viewer

  The Warp BonusPak includes a multimedia viewer that allows users to
  browse images, audio files, animation, and video clips. Multimedia
  objects are shown with "thumbnails", or miniature pictures, as if they
  were slides on a photographer's light table. The multimedia viewer, an
  extension of OS2 Warp's Workplace Shell, gives the user freedom to
  display or play an object by simply double-clicking on it with a
  mouse. The multimedia viewer allows users to view popular image
  formats such as GIF, TIFF, Targa, and PCX. Many of the formats are
  found on online services such as CompuServe and Internet.

o Use the PC Like a TV With Warp Multimedia

  OS/2 Warp supports popular video overlay cards, including the WIN/TV
  card from Hauppauge Computer Works, Inc., which allows users to turn
  their computers into televisions. With the preemptive multitasking
  power of OS/2 Warp, a fully-scalable TV screen can run in the
  foreground or background while users work on other applications.
  Device-driver support for other popular video overlay adapters is also
  included in OS/2 Warp.

o Capture, Clip, and Play Synchronized Video and Audio with Video IN for
  OS/2

  Ultimedia Video IN for OS/2, IBM's award-winning digital video
  technology, is included in the Warp BonusPak. With Video IN, OS/2
  users can use a video recorder to capture their favorite videos and
  images from a camcorder or other devices, and incorporate them in
  presentations using IBM's Ultimotion and Intel's Indeo formats. Video
  IN for OS/2 complements the integrated multimedia capabilities of OS/2
  Warp, including its advanced synchronization and streaming
  capabilities, and the ability to play and record Ultimotion and Indeo
  Audio Video Interleaved (AVI) clips. Video IN for OS/2 Warp is
  particularly useful to the educational community, which can use the
  technology to help create a wide range of CD-ROM titles and multimedia
  applications that can be used as teaching tools.

o More Audio Device Drivers Added to Warp

  New audio support added to OS/2 Warp includes Compaq Business Audio,
  Toshiba Business Audio, Analog Devices Audio, Aztech Sound Galaxy Nova
  16, ESS 688 AudioDrive, Media Vision Jazz16, Creative LabsAWE 32
  drivers, and Crystal Semi-Conductor audio support for the IBM ThinkPad
  and other mobile computers. OS/2 Warp supports more than 80 percent of
  the audio devices on the PC market.

Creating a Compelling Development Environment
---------------------------------------------

o MPEG Digital Video Support

  Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) support has been added to OS/2
  Warp through Sigma Designs' ReelMagic MPEG multimedia playback
  adapter. The support allows multimedia developers to create OS/2
  applications that offer full-motion, full-screen, full-color video,
  and CD-quality digital stereo sound from a single-speed CD-ROM. MPEG
  support in OS/2 Warp also allows users to view movies and television
  shows created in the emerging cross-platform VideoCD standard.

o Enhancements to OS/2 Digital Video and Games Graphics

  The Direct Interface Video Extensions (DIVE) API in OS/2 Warp gives
  OS/2 Warp applications direct access to the PC video hardware,
  enabling them to generate high-speed graphics needed for today's
  advanced multimedia software. The DIVE graphics interface allows
  powerful, high-speed games, and digital video applications to use a
  single high-speed API for stretching, clipping, and color conversion.

o Built-in Autodesk Animation Playback Support

  The built-in Autodesk animator playback support in OS/2 Warp allows
  users to view video animation files developed using the Autodesk .FLI
  and .FLC animation file formats. These formats are recognized as the
  industry standard for animation on personal computers. Sound effects
  can be added to these files to enhance playback.

o Compressed Audio Support

  OS/2 Warp has built-in software support for the industry-standard
  Interactive Multimedia Association ADPCM and Microsoft ADPCM formats.
  These formats reduce the amount of disk space required to store audio
  content, and make it easier to send and receive voice files over
  networks. Now, audio files take up to 75 percent less disk space
  without the need for additional hardware device support. IBM has also
  extended this capability in OS/2 Warp to reduce the disk space needed
  for AVI files to be stored and played back in OS/2 Warp.

Notes:

(1) There are two OS/2 Warp products products to choose from, depending
on what your system currently has installed, and what types of
applications you want to run. Both of these products include the
support needed to run a wide variety of OS/2 and DOS applications. If
you already have Windows installed, the OS/2 Warp product that uses your
existing Windows is the product to choose. If you don't have Windows
installed and want to run Windows applications, choose the OS/2 Warp
product that includes IBM's WIN-OS/2 code, which provides the support
required to run most Windows applications.

                           +-----------------+

(Excerpted from the brochure titled "OS/2 Warp: Now it's easier to do
more", IBM form number G326-0475.)

OS/2 Warp is a series of total computing solutions that can make a real
difference in how you and your computer work.

OS/2 Warp Version 3
-------------------

If you're an individual user, this newest version of the premier 32-bit
operating system is a perfect fit -- whether you're at home on your PC,
or on the road with your notebook. Not just a fix for DOS, OS/2 Warp
Version 3 opens up a whole new way to compute. Plus, it's simple and fun
to use, and offers fast, stable performance with as little as 4 MB of
memory.

OS/2 Warp is further enriched with a separate BonusPak for OS/2 Warp.
It's a set of full-function applications -- shipped with OS/2 Warp --
which includes access to the information highway. You get word
processing, charting, data filing and report writing applications, along
with fax and communications software -- including HyperACCESS Lite for
OS/2, the easy way to access online services, bulletin boards, or other
PCs and mainframes. Plus, there's CompuServe Information Manager for
OS/2, Personal Information Manager, and IBM's Person to Person for OS/2,
the solution for collaborative computing.

BonusPak for OS/2 Warp also includes the Multimedia Viewer for viewing
software motion video and playing audio files -- and you'll be able to
capture, clip, and play synchronized video and audio with Video IN for
OS/2. There's the System Information Tool that assists with system and
software problem resolution. What's more, you'll be able to navigate
through the Internet with easy-to-use graphical interfaces and
automatic dial-up connection to a worldwide Internet service provider.

OS/2 Warp LAN Client Version 3
------------------------------

Specially created for network users, OS/2 Warp LAN Client Version 3
offers you all the benefits of OS/2 Warp -- and more. Not only can you
work smarter with BonusPak for OS/2 Warp, shipped with the product, you
can take advantage of a set of additional LAN products that offer local
and remote network access in one complete package.

The LAN Server Requester and NetWare client for OS/2 products provide
easy integration with both OS/2 and NetWare network services, enabling
you to share resources across your enterprise. Using LAN Distance
Remote, you'll be able to connect with your LAN when you're away from
the office -- ideal for travel and telecommuters. You'll also be able to
travel the information highway via your LAN or dial-up connection.
What's more, system administration is simplified with System Performance
Monitor/2 (SPM/2), which helps you monitor LAN resources and keeps your
network running smoothly.

Two Editions
------------

Both OS/2 Warp and OS/2 Warp LAN Client offer two products to choose
from, depending on what your system currently has installed, and what
type of applications you want to run. Each includes the support needed
to run a wide variety of OS/2 and DOS applications. If you already have
Windows installed, the OS/2 Warp or OS/2 Warp LAN Client product that
uses your existing Windows is the product to choose. If you don't have
Windows installed, and want to run Windows applications, choose the OS/2
Warp or OS/2 Warp LAN Client product that includes IBM's WIN-OS/2 code,
which provides the support required to run most Windows applications.

OS/2 LAN Server Version 4.0
---------------------------

Whether your LAN is large or small, OS/2 LAN Server 4.0 combined with
OS/2 Warp provides a reliable, high-performance network environment, and
is the ideal complement for OS/2 Warp LAN Client. Choose OS/2 LAN Server
Entry for networks of up to 80 users, or LAN Server Advanced for
mission-critical environments of up to 1,000 users.

Whichever solution you choose, you'll benefit from OS/2 Warp's intuitive
Workplace Shell interface, which makes network management drag-and-drop
simple. Your network administrator can become an "expert" right away.
And you can save on training costs, too.

There's more. OS/2 LAN Server supports DOS, Windows, and OS/2
applications, so you can network clients in a mixed environment. Users
will be able to cut and paste across the network, and share printers and
files, regardless of whether they're using OS/2, Windows, or DOS. This
helps ensure that the investment you've already made in software will be
protected. And you'll be able to easily upgrade your LAN Server network
operating systems in the future, thanks to interoperability with
previous versions.

OS/2 for Symmetrical Multiprocessing Version 2.11
-------------------------------------------------

When you need to support the most complex computing environments without
sacrificing ease of use and productivity, choose OS/2 for Symmetrical
Multiprocessing (SMP). This truly scalable operating environment
supports up to 16 processors in the same system, so you can add
performance as you need it. You'll be able to scale your server systems
to handle larger networks running databases and graphics programs --
while still maintaining compatibility with DOS, Windows, and OS/2
applications.

OS/2 for SMP provides a stable and dependable environment for running
your business-critical applications. You'll experience enhanced
productivity, too, because multithreaded and compute-intensive
applications with run faster. And since OS/2 for SMP supports the
Multiprocessor System Specification V1.1, you'll be able to run it on a
variety of hardware systems.
