OS/2 Computing Support Community Opens on CompuServe
MT.LAUREL, NJ -- November 14, 1997 -- Creative Systems Programming
Corporation and CompuServe Interactive are happy to announce the creation of
the OS/2 Computing Support Community on CompuServe. Serving as the
cornerstone of this new online community are the OS/2 CentralTM Forum, OS/2
Central Developer Forum and OS/2 Central Networking Forum.
New menus tailored to the OS/2 community will make it easier to find exciting
topics of interest for OS/2 users and OS/2 developers. All of the content is
geared to the OS/2 Community and can now be found in a single location,
accessible by entering GO OS2COMPUTING at any CompuServe prompt. Current
users of OS/2-CIM will automatically be directed to the OS/2 view when they
select Computing Support from the Explore CompuServe menu.
Creative Systems Programming Corporation is further expanding their OS/2
Central area on CompuServe by creating a new OS/2 Central site on the World
Wide Web. The OS/2 Central World Wide Web site is free and can be found at
http://www.os2central.com.
The OS/2 Central Web site has been designed to create a focal point for OS/2
users on the World Wide Web and showcase the OS/2 Computing Support Community
on CompuServe. There is significant information available including a
comprehensive OS/2 user group directory, a complete listing of OS/2 books,
periodicals and electronic magazines, as well as archives of many of the
popular OS/2 list servers from the Internet. Additional information and
resources are under development for the OS/2 Central Web site and will be
made available as soon as they are completed.
"We're very excited to be able to provide these new resources and services to
the OS/2 community," said Larry B. Finkelstein, president of Creative Systems
Programming Corporation. "With the introduction of our OS/2 Central Web site
and the recently announced C from CompuServe, we expect to build a lot of
interest in the thriving OS/2 Community on CompuServe Interactive."
Creative Systems is continuing to work with CompuServe to insure that OS/2
users will continue to have a selection of first class tools for accessing
all of the content available on CompuServe. This includes plans for updates
to Golden CommPass (an offline reader for accessing CompuServe forums) as
well as the planned release of their new online browser, Golden CommPass
Interactive (formerly known as OS/2-CIM). A new forum has been opened to
provide support for this product, GO GCPINTERACTIVE.
Founded in 1984 and a privately-held company, Creative Systems Programming
Corporation is a CompuServe Business Partner and provides management of the
OS/2 Central areas on CompuServe. Creative Systems Programming Corporation
provides custom consulting and training services, designs 32-bit
client-server applications using the latest object technology and is a
leading developer of communications software, including the internationally
acclaimed Golden CommPass, OS/2 Navigation Software.
