Attention Team OS/2 Members (USA)
The OS/2 Vendor Council, IBM, and CompUSA are currently planning an
OS/2 Application day on Saturday, March 5, 1994. This will be a
full day to do in-store OS/2 and application demonstrations and
let people see and try OS/2 products. We're looking for
volunteers who may be interested in helping out so we can feature
OS/2 and applications in as many CompUSA stores as possible nationwide.
The Vendor Council is a group of 16 independent vendors of OS/2 appli-
cations who work together to help promote and distribute their pro-
ducts. A recent agreement with CompUSA means that these products are
now starting to appear in CompUSA stores everywhere. So, this is a
great opportunity to help show off OS/2 applications to OS/2 users as
well as show off OS/2 to everyone else.
Of course, this will be a lot of work. But, as many of you know by know,
it can also be a lot of fun. Especially since we'll have real
applications to show off to potential customers.
We're looking for help in doing these demonstrations and answering
questions. The vendors will also have representations at stores
where possible. And, we need a person willing to be the Lead
Teamer for each store to coordinate the volunteers, merchandise,
software, and general communications for the local teams.
Those of you who are interested in participating should contact:
Katy Kerr at Footprint Software
Compuserve 73501,513
fax 416-860-1780
phone: 416-943-4652
by Monday 21 Feb 1994, or as soon as possible, so that we can start
making final arrangements with the stores. Please give her your
name, city, phone number, and email userid and fax number (if you have
them plus the location of the CompUSA you'd like to take. Also
please indicate if you're willing to be the lead rep for this store.
She'll get back to you letting you know what to do or who to contact
from that point on.
Once again, let's show CompUSA and computer users around the country
that "OS/2ers have more fun".
We'll announce more details when we have them. However, we will be
posting a list of CompUSA stores around the country VERY soon as
well as the Lead Teamers.
Thank you all for your support.
