Press Release - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
____________________________________________________________

One Hundred Vendor100's And Exhibitors At Warp Expo West !!

One hundred OS/2 vendors, products and specialists are now a part of
Warp Expo West.

"Guests will see a lot of OS/2 products," says Chairman Rollin White.
"We topped 100 last week and we're still adding new ones."

There's something new this year. A network of machines will
constantly make the software available for guests to try. Two servers
and a number of clients will give every guest a chance to try all the
software they want, see how it works, how it feels, and what it can do.
Every Vendor100 program will be available on every machine. There will
even be online ordering.

"Vendor100 is clearly a better way to demonstrate software," continues
White. "Instead of wandering the show aisles and searching for the
software you need, it's all on one machine in front of you. You can try
each application, switch back and forth between them to compare
features, even check the vendor web sites to see what extra information
is online."

The network itself runs OS/2 WiseManager, from Serenity Systems. "You
can buy that too," smiles Kim Cheung, Executive Director for Serenity.
Cheung personally supervised the installation of all software.
WiseManager allows software to reside on one server and be used anywhere
on the network, with individual profiles for each user. The user
machines don't even need hard drives; they can boot directly from the
network and all files are kept on the server.

For the software you need and the systems that run it, come to Warp
Expo West!
