| IBM's Personal Software Products Technical Interchange |
| -- the Home Stretch! |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
It's the home stretch for enrolling to attend the only IBM-sponsored
event of its kind -- IBM's Personal Software Products Technical
Interchange, featuring OS/2 and IBM LAN Systems!
From 29 August through 2 September, 1993, at the Walt Disney World (R)
Dolphin Hotel in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, USA, IBM is pulling out all
the stops to bring you the newest, latest, best technical information
ever about OS/2 and LAN Systems products! No other such conference
offers you the complete picture -- up-to-the-minute technical details,
about a comprehensive variety of hot topics, covered in depth, and
presented by IBM's own developers of OS/2 and LAN Systems. In just four
days, you'll amass a vast amount of crucial knowledge that would
normally take you much longer to gather -- if you could find it at all!
This is the real thing ... the only IBM-sponsored technical interchange
of its kind. Don't be fooled by imitations; accept no substitutes!
Maximize the effectiveness of the IBM PSP Technical Interchange by
choosing your topics from 15 intensive elective tracks. See, first-hand,
the latest OS/2 and LAN Systems tools and applications from leading
independent software vendors and IBM. Get one-on-one assistance from
IBM's own technical experts in two hands-on labs.
Hear prominent executives -- James Cannavino, Art Olbert, Cliff Reeves,
and John Soyring of IBM, and John Landry of Lotus -- offer their views
on industry trends and directions. Participate in a one-hour Q&A
session with Lois Dimpfel and the OS/2 and LAN Systems development
teams. Boggle your mind as David Barnes, everyone's favorite OS/2
pitchman, puts OS/2 through its paces.
See demonstrations of state-of-the-art PSP application software from
more than 75 leading independent software vendors, who have developed
leading-edge software for major PSP operating platforms -- OS/2, LAN
Systems, Multimedia, and Pen.
Take home a bundle of premiums -- OS/2 2.1; a CD-ROM with beta versions
of IBM LAN Systems products; a copy of IBM Communications Manager/2; a
beta version of IBM's Developer Connection CD-ROM; and software from our
co-sponsors: a choice of Computer Associates' CA-REALIZER or
CA-SUPERPROJECT; Lotus' Ami Pro for OS/2; and WordPerfect 5.2 for OS/2.
Get a complimentary one-year subscription to OS/2 Developer magazine.
Sign up for daily product raffles. Collect OS/2 "32-bit" entry forms
when you participate in functions and sessions, and use them to vie for
the grand prize -- a brand-new IBM ThinkPad!
Enjoy the "Tacky Tourist" welcome event on Sunday night 29 August, and
the Tropical Heat Wave reception the next evening. Come with us on
chartered buses to Universal Studios Florida on Wednesday evening, and
enjoy a dinner buffet, continuous use of some of the most popular rides
and attractions, and a private viewing of the Wild, Wild, Wild West
Stunt Show.
The Orlando area is one of the world's most popular tourist
destinations, featuring the many Disney attractions, Universal Studios,
Sea World, Cypress Gardens, Busch Gardens, the Kennedy Space Center (the
latter three attractions within two hours' drive), lots of outdoor
activities, and shopping to fit everyone's tastes.
