The much anticipated beta release of OS/2 SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4 is
finally here! Official beta testers have already been chosen, but the
beta code is freely available for download from Lotus at
ftp://beta.lotus.com/os2 for anyone who would like to try it out. You
can read more about the beta program at: http://beta.lotus.com/warpbeta.
Since this is a very large download (120+ MB of zipped files including
the special fixpack!), Indelible Blue is making the files available on
CD for a service fee of only $10 + shipping. Orders are now being taken
for immediate shipment.
Here are a few details you should be aware of before downloading or
ordering the beta code:
- - the beta is only available in "Global English" (a combined North
American & Internat'l English edition) and is designed for installation
on a North American English edition of OS/2 Warp 4
- - a "Special Edition" FixPack 3 for OS/2 Warp 4 is a required
prerequisite and is also provided for download
- - individual applications from the suite may be downloaded, so you
don't have to download the entire suite if you're only interested in
certain applications
- - be sure to read all of the information in the readme and index files
thoroughly before you begin installation!
The general release of SmartSuite for OS/2 Warp 4 is expected the first
quarter of 1998 and will be available from Indelible Blue on the
earliest possible date. For more detailed information about SmartSuite,

updated, so it may be temporarily out of order.)
