- I'd like to see *any* new adertising from IBM for OS/2. I can hope that
- they're saving up for a big push for the new, improved, bug-fixed, enhanced,
- faster, documented 2.1. I see the OS/2 ads in the magazines, but they're
- still the same old ones from months ago. Any new ads would help. I know
- IBM can advertise - everywhere I turn I see a ValuePoint billboard.
-
- Going to a two page ad would be a big change - so far IBM seems set on
- maintaining the same old format of graphics on the left, text on the right.
- Maybe these ads work well for corporate buyers, but IBM has to realize
- that home users need something more to get their attention.
