FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AUGUST 5, 1993
*** MILLER FREEMAN LAUNCHES OS/2 MAGAZINE ***
SAN FRANCISCO -- Miller Freeman, Inc. today announced the launch
of OS/2 MAGAZINE out of its San Francisco headquarters.
OS/2 MAGAZINE is focused on users and system administrators who
work with IBM's OS/2 operating system on a daily basis. "OS/2
MAGAZINE represents another step in developing a well-rounded
group of top-notch computer and electronics magazines here at
Miller Freeman," said Don Pazour, Vice-President of Miller
Freeman's High-Tech Division.
Ted Bahr, Group Publisher of the company's Electronics/Design
Group, was named Publisher of OS/2 MAGAZINE, and added, "No
major publishing company is currently serving those individuals
and corporate users and systems administrators who have chosen
OS/2 as their operating system. OS/2 users are hardcore
enthusiasts and OS/2 MAGAZINE will be serving a definite need
in this growing market."
The first issue of OS/2 MAGAZINE will hit newsstands in
mid-November 1993, and will be distributed at Fall Comdex in Las
Vegas. Monthly publication begins with the February 1994 issue.
OS/2 MAGAZINE will be distributed through paid subscriptions
and on newsstands. "We believe paid circulation is important in
satisfying advertisers' needs to reach a qualified audience,"
Bahr explained. OS/2 MAGAZINE will be audited as soon as
possible.
Effective immediately, Miller Freeman has appointed Alan
Zeichick as Editor-in-Chief of OS/2 MAGAZINE. "OS/2 is the most
popular 32-bit operating system for IBM-compatible personal
computers," Zeichick said. "Members of the OS/2 user community,
whether individuals, small businesses, or large corporations,
are looking for a dedicated source of information about how to
maximize their productivity."
Miller Freeman's High-Tech Division also publishes Dr. Dobb's
Journal, OS/2 Developer, Cadence Magazine, UNIX Review,
LAN Magazine, Software Development, Embedded Systems
Programming, Database Programming & Design, Microsoft Systems
Journal, and AI Expert. It is also the sponsor of
high-technology conferences, including Autodesk University,
Software Development Week, Embedded Systems Conference, Computer
Security Conference, Electronic Imaging, and Business Software
Solutions (formerly the Windows & OS/2 Conference). A wholly
owned subsidiary of United Newspapers plc, Miller Freeman, Inc.
publishes 32 other magazines and is the third largest producer
of trade shows and technical conferences in North America.
