2. OS/2 WARP SERVER LAUNCH ADDS EVEN MORE FUEL TO OS/2 RALLY
On the occasion of the OS/2 Warp Server announcement, John W. Thompson rallied
his troops with the clear messages that he has consistently shared since Fall
Comdex.
Position OS/2 Warp Server to span the entire range of applications our
customers require, from high-power networking to simple departmental
applications.
Make sure that OS/2 Warp as a client functions well with any server in
customer networks.
Ensure that OS/2 Warp is the client customers prefer for OS/2 servers. The
benefits of OS/2 client/server synergy puts us way ahead of competition, and
we intend to extend our lead.
Compete aggressively in the connected consumer segment -- where people
travel between office and home, in the process accessing a range of on-line
services.
To achieve our goals, we have a three-pronged strategy. First, we will
leverage our customers' investment in OS/2 and grow our business. Second, we
will deliver technologies that are red hot and can make our customers much
more productive -- across the board, from Internet tools to tools for
application development. And third, we will be crystal clear in our
communication about OS/2, its future direction, and its importance to IBM and
to our customers.
OS/2 momentum is continuing to build with more and more customers embracing
OS/2 as an important mission-critical solution. And leading software
manufacturers around the world are embracing it by committing to port their
popular applications to OS/2 and writing new applications for it.
