For Immediate Release
The OS/2 Alternative volunteer-maintained list of more than 990 current,
native OS/2 applications has been updated at of July 15, 1998.
This page can be found at:
http://www.tstonramp.com/~freiheit/os2apps.shtml
Enhancements include a reorganization of some of the software categories,
still more new OS/2 applications listed, linked, and categorized in rough
comparison to what you or a friend/associate may already be using for
Windows, and some (hopefully) more attractive colors.
New features include a navigation menu for easier browsing of the extensive
list of categories. Now you can find the software you need much more
easily! There is also a new sub-page listing my intentions for the future
of The OS/2 Alternative. Be sure to check it out and post other suggestions
via the handy form provided there.
I am very excited about coming so close to the 1,000 applications mark. I
expect to reach it within two weeks and wish I could throw a massive
celebration party with all the OS/2 users, developers, and enthusiasts who
have made this list possible since early 1997.
