WHAT'S NEW FROM EUROS/2......

Lotus confirm support for OS/2

John Throckmorton is head of all SmartSuite operations at Lotus Development Corporation. He has released the following letter, originally submitted to Network World:

Michael,


I believe that your article ("IBM treats 9-year-old OS/2 client like a second-class citizen", p. 15, Network World, Sept. 2, 1996) is unfair to Lotus and misrepresents our commitment to OS/2 customers. You claim that Lotus's decision to contract with Logica, Inc. for some development work on our OS/2 applications indicates that "IBM/Lotus has given up on developing OS/2 products." This statement is untrue. In fact, our decision to enlist an experienced OS/2 developer such as Logica, Inc. for a portion of the development work on our OS/2 applications is a sign that Lotus is especially commited to our customers and intends to release the best possible products to the OS/2 community.


Sincerely,


John C. Throckmorton
Sr. Vice President
Business Applications Development

...make pre-release OS/2 products available

The following is taken from recent Lotus announcements:

PRE-RELEASE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Word Pro and Freelance Graphics 96 Edition for OS/2 Warp Pre-Release:

  • OS/2 Warp Version 3 with the latest OS/2 FixPak*
  • IBM compatible 486DX2 66 MHz or higher (Pentium recommended)
  • 16 MB RAM (24 MB recommended)
  • VGA or higher graphics card
  • OS/2 compatible CD-ROM drive
  • Word Pro: Hard drive with a minimum 16 MB available (36MB required for full install)
  • Freelance: Hard drive with a minimum 36 MB available (57MB required for full install)

Installation of the pre-requisite OS/2 FixPak will require up to an additional 18MB; OS/2 requires additional space for a swap file. Mouse optional but highly recommended.

  • Word Pro 96 and Freelance 96 both require an update to OS/2 Warp Version 3 to run properly. A corresponding IBM OS/2 FixPak is included at each location beta/pre-release code is available, with detailed release notes. We highly recommend you read the release notes before installing IBM's FixPak.
  • Compatibility with OS/2 Warp V4 (Merlin) - This initial build of Freelance will not yet install on OS/2 Warp V4. This build of Word Pro will work on OS/2 Warp V4 with some color changes in InfoBox. Work in progress with IBM's OS/2 team on OS/2 Warp V4 fixes.

WHEN WILL WORD PRO 96 AND FREELANCE 96 FOR OS/2 WARP SHIP?

Word Pro and Freelance Graphics are both now in pre-release for final testing, and are expected to go gold in Q4, shortly after IBM's new fall release of OS/2 Warp V4 (code named Merlin). Language plans have U.S. English targeted for shipment in early Dec, followed shortly by French, Italian, German, Spanish, Int'l English and Danish (FIGSE+D) for shipment by year end. Additional languages to follow in early 97.

What about the rest of the suite apps?

Remaining new native OS/2 suite applications, including 1-2-3, Approach, Organizer and ScreenCam, are on track for the first half of 97. Further details will be provided as we begin entering beta for each application later this year and into early 97.

In EMEA:
Lotus plans to initially ship Word Pro 96 and Freelance 96 for OS/2 Warp together, followed by a suite release when all six new native OS/2 applications are available.

Other worldwide regional plans will be confirmed as we near shipment.

Further pricing and packaging details will be provided through existing contacts in each region as we near shipment.
