| Hi All, I've been at least 3 years a part from OS/2. Now I'd like to install it again, but there're a lot of things I don't remember and some more things new as I can see. So here're my questions: - Last FP was 15? I think this is prety old by now.. didn't IBM intend to continue support longer? - What's this eCM thing I keep reading in the forums? - What's Convenience Pack 4.52 ?? (it seems to be only for US_EN, will it install on ES_ES?) - What's Desktop on Call? - Whats Personal Communications? - Have a CD (Software Choice Vol. 9). What's this? Thats a lot I know.. I'll be grateful for any info. Thanks, < ... sic ... > |

Yes, it was last free fixpack for Warp4. FP16 available for Software Choice subscribers. IBM no longer support Warp4. To get support you must switch to CP or eCS.
eComStation - http://www.ecomstation.com - new OS/2 distributive from Serenity Systems Inc., based on CP code.
New OS/2 distributive from IBM which include all system fixes and updates, as well other updated components (TCP/IP, Java, etc...). Available for Software Choice subscribers.
Remote control application. You can control your OS/2 from any computer using a Java-enabled browser. Some questions omitted, because I can't say something on it. |
