STARDOCK'S OBJECT DESKTOP IS HERE
Stardock Systems will begin shipping its Object Desktop on October 2,
1995. Targeting both the corporate and retail markets, Object Desktop
is an advanced desktop environment that "turbo-charges" OS/2, improving
performance, flexibility, and ease of use.
Object Desktop enhances the existing OS/2 environment with updated
icons, frame controls, and command buttons, and adds new tools designed
to boost productivity and system performance. The new features include
the Object Navigator, Control Center, Keyboard LaunchPad, Object
Archives, and HyperDrive and HyperCache features.
"I haven't been this excited about a product since OS/2 Warp itself."
said David Barnes, Senior Marketing Manager at IBM Personal Software
Products. "My competitors recently released a product that has some
nice features. But Object Desktop gave me everything they have and a
lot more (and on a more solid foundation--OS/2 Warp). Object Desktop
will be the first thing I install on any of my systems from now on."
Object Desktop carries a suggested retail price of $99.95. Stardock
expects the typical street price to be significantly less than that.
Site licensing and wholesale pricing sheets can be obtained from
Stardock at 313-453-0328 (fax 313/453-1480).
