OS/2 Sightings
"In the May issue of Car & Driver, there is a feature about
Formula 1 racing boats (yes, boats). The one that the Car &
Driver writer got a chance to play with (i.e., go ca. 150 MPH on
a lake
course) is plastered with IBM logos, including a prominent OS/2
on the cowl."
The LAN Systems Marketing Support Department was sighted in
Mexico City, Mexico last month presenting the LAN Server 4.0
Jumpstart Program, a complementary two-day introductory course,
for key Business Partners in the Software Channel. Similar
events have been planned for Brazil, Canada, United States,
Europe and the Asia/Pacific regions.
For more information on the LAN Server 4.0 Jumpstart Program
please write to lansystems@vnet.ibm.com
As of April, 1995 IBM OS/2 Warp 3.0 CD has been seen for eight
consecutive weeks at the top of the Ingram Micro Retail Products
Best Sellers List in the category of operating systems and
languages.
OS/2 Warp, by way of IBM Italy, is sponsoring the Giro D'Italia,
a major European cycle race lasting 23 days. IBM will sponsor a
series of Web pages on the race and will be publishing daily
results. The URL is:
http://www.europe.ibm.com/getdoc/psmemea/underground/warpgiro/.
OS/2 Warp is sponsoring a Cyberhunt Chase. This interactive
game developed by TRACER Design, Inc. provides a fun and easy
way to learn to navigate the Internet with IBM's OS/2 Warp.
People can win prizes by following clues left behind by an
elusive character named Vincent who is trapped in Cyberspace.
OS/2 Warp turns the INDY 500 race
course into 2.5-mile information superhighway. An automatic
transmitter-based timing system, running under OS/2, will post
the times and speeds of every car on every lap run in practice,
during the time trials beginning on May 13, and throughout the
race on May 28.
