1.Question. but what does TEAM OS/2 DO?

Answer: Team OS/2 is a state of mind: Team members are those who see that something needs to be done, and they figure out how to do it.

Their activities include:

  • starting and supporting OS/2 user groups
  • running OS/2 BBS's and online conferences
  • demoing OS/2 to user groups, at retail stores, and in other public places
  • encouraging others to install OS/2
  • helping support those who have it already by answering questions
  • and many other activities - limited only by the unlimited imagination of teamers

Teamers include IBMers and non-IBMers world-wide. Membership in TEAM OS/2 is not limited to IBM employees (in fact, most members aren't IBMers at all)

2.Question. How can I join TEAM OS/2?

Answer: You are a part of Team OS/2 simply if you consider that you are actively promoting OS/2 and want to be part of it. But to get on the Team list, please send us the following information:

  • Your Name
  • Mailing address (Will be provided to vendors for mailings)
  • Phone number (will NOT be published)
  • Short description (for the public TEAM OS/2 list... if you'd like to put some info about your BBS or software product or anything you'd like made public, send it to us)

Also please let us know what you've been doing to promote the use of OS/2 and what led you to send us your name.

We will then put your name, city and state, and email address (of whichever systems you mention) in the public TEAM OS/2 list.
