 DESCRIPTION-

        1.  Warp's Java Virtual Machine should be viewed by the industry
            as the most stable and fastest.  The better the JavaVM, the
            more Java developers will show off their apps on Warp; the
            more corporations will use Warp as their end user Java
            platform; the more units of Warp are extant that will
            encourage More Warp development.

            Warp should have the first ports of new releases of Java;
            even before AIX or NT.

        2.  Continued integration of Voice Type with Java.

        3.  High visibility of Java apps on Warp.

        ATTRIBUTES:

        HIGH Value
        Desired ASAP

        SUPPLEMENTAL TEXT:
        June 1, 1997
        100% Java is very important.  Lets see some product!!!

        a.  Where's Visual Age for Java?   Notice that Microsoft
            released Visual J++ last year with its curious
            extensions?  They've got smart people working for them.

        b.  Where's JDK 1.1 for OS/2?

        Java is important to the industry not just OS/2.  Having the
        best
        JavaVM and best development environment could sell more copies
        of OS/2.  Sell more, get more money.
