THE DEVELOPER CONNECTION FOR OS/2
The Power of the Future Delivered to Your Door
The Developer Connection for OS/2 --continuing proof of
IBM's commitment to OS/2 developers-- can greatly increase
your productivity by providing you with the latest tools,
pre-release software, product demos, and information you
need on today's most convenient medium--a CD. And, because
we live in changing times, an annual subscription to the
Developer Connection for OS/2 keeps your tools and
information from becoming obsolete. Each year you'll
receive 4 CDs, each packed with the tools and information
you need for your OS/2 development efforts. Along with each
CD, you will receive our newsletter, The Developer
Connection News. Look to The Developer Connection News to
be the complete source of information for all of your OS/2
development efforts.
When accessed from your CD drive, The Developer Connection
for OS/2 becomes a part of your Workplace Shell environment.
Click on The Developer Connection icon, and all the wealth
of the Developer Connection for OS/2 is instantly
attainable. Use the powerful Developer Connection Browser
to locate any piece of information. And because the
intuitive graphical user interface is a part of the
Workplace Shell environment, each task is familiar and
simple. Try the products, install them, or simply retrieve
product information. There is also an available option for
creating diskettes for many of the products on the CD.
And, because these are the products you need to develop the
best OS/2 applications today, as well as tomorrow, we have
designed The Developer Connection for OS/2 to be your open
door to what IBM is doing now and in the future. Each CD
will contain product level versions of the Developer's
Toolkit for OS/2 (which includes the Multimedia Presentation
Manager Toolkit/2) and Pen for OS/2 Developer's Toolkit,
pre-release versions of software, volumes of technical
documentation, internal tools, product demos, and bitmaps.
In addition, we plan to include the latest pre-release
version of the OS/2 operating system on each CD.
