                 OS/2 SPECIAL INTEREST GROUP
              PHILADELPHIA AREA COMPUTER SOCIETY
                   http://www.phillyos2.org

 The OS/2 SIG of the Philadelphia Area Computer Society invites
 all interested computer users to attend the November meeting:

       WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1998   7:00 - 10:00 PM
   The Episcopal Academy, 376 N. Latches Lane, Merion, PA

          ***   NOVEMBER FEATURE PRESENTATION   ***
   --  Speech-Aware Computerized Maintenance Management  --

Dr. John Urbaniak, President of Aviar Inc. will present Aviar's
new speech-aware CMMS, "Oz of Prevention," for OS/2 and WSOD.
Aviar pioneered speech-aware natural language DB2 query technology
with its "V Trex" product which uses Warp 4 VoiceType Dictation.
This was demonstrated by Dr Urbaniak at our August 1997 meeting.

There are over 200 CMMS products on the market, none of them
native OS/2, until now; and none speech-aware, until now.

Oz was presented at Warpstock '98 last month in Chicago, where it
received rave reviews by attendees. Several Warpstock attendees
have already requested and installed Oz, and are now running it.
The Editor-in-Chief of "Maintenance Technology Magazine" visited
Aviar at Warpstock, and was so impressed by Oz that he decided
to feature the system in an upcoming issue of the magazine.

If your company maintains equipment, parts inventories, etc., or
wishes to reduce maintenance cost, you should attend this meeting.
But even if you don't currently have need for a CMMS, come see an
example of a fully-integrated, speech-aware OS/2 application.

Other agenda items include a Q&A session, OS/2 news & new product
announcements, SIG business matters, software raffle (subject to
availability, etc. An OS/2 system will also be on hand for demos
of OS/2, Java, Internet, etc., as time may permit. Our customary
free light refreshments will also be available.

Mark the date and time: Wednesday, November 18, at 7:00pm. If you
want to hear about all the new and exciting developments, or have
questions about OS/2 Warp and Java, this is the place to see OS/2
in action and get all the answers to your questions. OS/2 SIG
meetings are open & free for all OS/2 users and guests, and all
others interested in learning about OS/2.
