WARPSTOCK GETS WEBFOOT: OS/2 Duck to attend, wants Timur Tabi's autograph
Webfoot, The OS/2 Duck, has announced he'll attend Warpstock '98 in
Chicago this October.
The prolific OS/2 columnist and quacker-at-large attended last year's
Warpstock, and expects this year's event to be even grander.
"I attended all of Timur Tabi's presentations," said The Duck, "both his
Win32-OS/2 main-hall demonstration of converting Windows 95 software to
OS/2 executables, and his TIMER0 technical lecture, which went into
overtime and consumed an entire extra lecture period because he
presented so much. Now that's the kind of stuff that makes this event
worth attending! When I see Timur this year, I'm getting his
autograph."
Webfoot is looking forward to even more of what he experienced at last
year's two festive days in California. "There was Dick Goran's REXX
presentation, and Paul Hethmon's email server. The OS/2 BBS and the
technical comparison with NT. The guys from IBM who described the inner
workings of the kernel. The vendor booths, the new product
demonstrations and all the discounts. The grab bag of goodies they
handed you as you walked in the door. The hundreds of door prizes given
away. The free lunch on Saturday and the band on Saturday night. I've
already registered for this year's big show. Maybe they'll ask me to be
a guest lecturer."
Webfoot, whose monthly column is one of the most popular OS/2 sites on
the 'net, suggests that anyone wanting a mention of their own
OS/2-centric home page pay him a visit at Warpstock and pass along their
url. He's always looking for new sites on which to bestow a few good
quacks.
