IBM article mentioning OS/2 client (from R. Sean Hartnett)
Here is a an unfortunate article to read by one of IBM's leaders. Look towards the bottom to see the words discussing the OS/2 client future. Not a happy read.

Help Desk comic strip gets its own web site (from Chris Wright)
The comic strip "Help Desk" has been running in OS/2 e-Zine! since 1996. Now, it also has its own web site, Ubersoft.net. While the latest and greatest strips will still be shown in OS/2 e-Zine! first, readers will be able to easily browse through Help Desk archives, without having to track them down in the back issues on the OS/2 e-Zine! site.

I also plan to start putting out the strip more regularly. I'm shooting for one a week at the outset, maybe more, but don't expect this to be a daily strip like User Friendly. At least, not initially. My schedule's far too hectic to take on that kind of insanity...

The Notebook/2 Site (from Dr. Martinus)
The Notebook/2 Site, which focuses on providing help for notebook users who want to run OS/2 on their machines, has finally had some major updates.

If you would like to submit info, installation reports etc, please use the forms on the site. You can also download a text-based form and send it via email from the form pages. I am sorry that I couldn't reply to all queries which reached me during the recent weeks, I was simply buried under work after our move from India back to Germany. I hope to be prompter in the future.

Your support is very much appriciated!

Warp FM '99 #4 (from Tim Sipples)
VOLUME 4 - OS/2 WARP FM '99 - InfoFlash 4

News You Can Use about OS/2 Warp ...

A Preview of Coming Attractions.

You OS/2 Java(tm)** junkies can now preview IBM's soon to be released OS/2 Warp Developer Kit, Java Technology Edition, Version 1.1.8. This version is the latest in a line of stable, high performance, compatible Java platforms for OS/2. You noticed the word 'Preview', right? Well that means that while it is not yet ready for running critical applications, the version 1.1.8 preview is available to you today for early testing.

We have taken selected functions from Sun's Java 2 technology and added them to our already robust version 1.1.7 of the OS/2 Developer Kit. You can now begin evaluating some of the Java 2 functions as you think about migration of your Java applications to the Java 2 platform. The new OS/2 Warp Runtime Environment, Java(superscript: TM) 2 Technology Edition, version 1.1.8 will include IBM's implementation of the Java COMM API for OS/2, and Swing. We have also taken the following selected functions from Java 2: Java 2 security classes & Remote Method Invocation over IIOP (RMI/IIOP).

FLASH! ... The WarpFM Web Page Remodeling is now Completed!

As reported in the last issue, our crack web team has been remodeling the WarpFM site. That work is now complete, and InfoFlashes are much easier to find. Try it ... you'll like it!
