PCX Announces the Release of OS/2 BakupWiz
San Diego, CA, August 4, 1993 - PCX announced today that OS/2
BakupWiz will be released for general sale on August 16, 1993.
OS/2 BakupWiz is a comprehensive Backup/Restore program that takes
full advantage of OS/2's many advanced features. Typical OS/2
configurations include a large amount of fixed disk storage which
requires a backup system capable of effectively backing up large
amounts of data. OS/2 BakupWiz's backup capacity is only limited by
the current state of the art in backup devices.
A long list of SCSI tape devices is supported by OS/2 BakupWiz. These
range from 150 megabyte 1/4" cartridge devices to multi gigabyte 4
and 8 millimeter devices to automated tape loading devices with
capacities in excess of 100 gigabytes. OS/2 BakupWiz will work with
all SCSI adapter cards that are supported by OS/2.
Being a character mode OS/2 program, OS/2 BakupWiz is capable of
fully restoring the users OS/2 boot partition, thus saving the time
that would normally be required to manually reinstall the operating
system from diskette or CDROM. OS/2 BakupWiz also supports OS/2's
extended attributes, long file names, and the High Performance File
System.
While OS/2 BakupWiz is PCX's first entry into the ever growing OS/2
marketplace, BakupWiz has a long history in the DOS market. BakupWiz
for DOS, marketed directly by PCX, is also resold and bundled under
private label by various SCSI board manufacturers.
The software ships on 3.5 inch diskettes. Retail price is $189.00.
PCX is offering an introductory price of $129.00 until September 30,
1993. Due to customer demand, PCX has started accepting orders for
OS/2 BakupWiz for shipment beginning August 16, 1993.
PCX, founded in 1982, develops and markets personal computer software
and is firmly committed to the OS/2 platform. In addition to OS/2
BakupWiz, PCX also markets BakupWiz for DOS and performs consulting
services under contract. PCX specializes in the development of device
drivers and utilities for OS/2, DOS, and Netware.
