                IBM Joins Warp Expo West !!


  "We are extremely pleased to announce that IBM will be 
both a presenter and an exhibitor at Warp Expo West," said 
Rollin White, Warp Expo West Chairman, to a delighted OS/2 
crowd of businessmen, network engineers, software vendors 
and other OS/2 enthusiasts attending the recent general 
meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group.

  "IBM will be sending members of their national team to 
give our Warp Expo West guests more information on both new 
and existing IBM products for the OS/2 platform," continued 
White, "and we shall do everything we can to make sure that 
these OS/2 products and IBM's representatives are an 
integral part of Warp Expo West."

  The Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) is the 
sponsoring organization for this September's "A Warpfest Of 
OS/2 Excitement - Warp Expo West".

  Following the announcement, the audience was elated that 
IBM would be present in such force.  "This shows IBM's 
commitment to OS/2," said Paul Wirtz, Vice President of 
SCOUG.  "I am personally very excited."

  "I've installed OS/2 on so many office machines and 
networks over the years that I can do it in my sleep," said 
one audience member during a break.  "It simply never 
fails.  It's Y2K compliant.  There's a brand new version 
out.  And IBM will be there with their OS/2 people.  I'm 
going to suggest very strongly that my entire department 
attend this show."

  Steve Schiffman, Facilities Coordinator for Warp Expo 
West, was also thrilled.  "IBM's presence will certainly 
attract both more attendees and more vendors," said 
Schiffman, "and we will add as many additional rooms as 
necessary to ensure that all guests and exhibitors are 
accommodated in a comfortable, professional manner."

  Warp Expo West is the free international OS/2 expo being 
held near Disneyland in southern California.  The web site 
is at http://www.scoug.com/warpexpowest

  "This is our third annual OS/2 show," said Terry Warren, 
President of SCOUG, "and we've expanded it every year to 
keep pace with new developments in OS/2 software products, 
including the many new offerings from IBM.  Each time IBM 
adds OS/2 products or increases the functionality of 
existing ones, we get technologically farther and farther 
ahead of the competition.  We have the Y2K readiness that 
other platforms don't; we have IBM's outstanding 
development tools; we have their robust server and database 
products.  The stability of OS/2 and its associated 
products has shown time and again that it's both a better 
solution and less costly to maintain, and we look forward 
to seeing OS/2 users and IBM join together this September 
for a view of the future, an OS/2 and IBM future, at Warp 
Expo West."
