 * IBMs Official OS/2 Warp FAQs
 * by IBMers Michael Kaply and Timothy F. Sipples
 * ISBN 1-56884-472-7

This IBM Press book includes answers direct from IBM's own technical support database.
 * From the publisher's notes:

Hardware concepts (such as DMA and interrupts) are explained in terms that make sense, leading to advice on OS/2 Warp installation, configuration, and choosing new hardware. "IBM's Official OS/2 Warp FAQs" is one of the first books to cover OS/2 Warp Connect and its networking features. The OS/2 Warp BonusPak is also discussed, with detailed information on how to use OS/2 Warp with practically any Internet service provider. Hard disk partitioning is described in plain English with practical advice from the authors.

"IBM's Official OS/2 Warp FAQs" includes the FAQ Pack, a CD-ROM containing a complete online version of the entire book. The CD-ROM also includes extra device drivers, fixes and patches, hotlinks to popular Internet sites, bitmaps, demonstrations, and free software for your OS/2 Warp PC.
