This is
a useful tool for any person who wants to know more about their machine and understand how OS/2 uses the hardware resources of their PC. The system information utilities that are bundled with Warp are quite sparse in some places, and difficult to understand in others, so this program bridges the gap with an easy-to-use and intuitive interface.

This is an application that is similar to the Windows 95/98 taskbar and system tray. It is very easy to install (if you don't want it running all the time, you can even call it from the executable) and the latest release includes a new 'Minimise All' function.

With this program you can incorporate public IBM fixpaks into your installation CD. Thus you will be able to install a Year 2000-compliant OS/2 Warp on systems with large hard disks, right from this CD. You do not have to reinstall fixpaks after using selective install. This program scans the original OS/2 CD-ROM which is copied to your hard disk and updates all the files which are refreshed in the
fixpak.

This program would be familiar to most OS/2 users - even if only by reputation! It started out, many years ago, as a simple OS/2 terminal utility for use on the Internet, but has evolved over the years to become an extremely powerful and feature-packed utility that will do just about anything in the terminal world. Features include an amazing array of communication methods, emulations, the ability to show images as they download and telephone cost monitoring.
