OS/2 PERSONAL TAKES A NEW APPROACH IN PUBLISHING

TAMPA BAY, FLORIDA. 17th June, 1994 - International Business Machine's OS/2
has become the operating system of choice for individuals who want more
power from their personal computers and with the number of shipped units
recently passing five million, Allen-Hamilton Publishing Corporation felt
the time was right to launch a new kind of publication for these users.

"We chose a Windows-based hyper-media format because just about  everybody
who has OS/2 has Windows and DOS installed." explained Mark  Hamilton,
Senior Editor for OS/2 Personal. "It also enables us to produce a magazine
that is user-friendly, easy to read and is less damaging to the
environment. We thought about using OS/2's .inf format but if we chose
this route, we'd eliminate current users of Windows who want to learn more
about OS/2 before adopting it as their personal operating system."

"Our audience are those who understand the power of OS/2 and also those 
who want more than Windows has to offer," Hamilton continued, "such as 
pre-emptive multitasking [running more than one program at once] and
better  protection against data loss. Perhaps a user may wish to operate
two or three copies of the same program -- something that is not efficient
with Windows  on DOS."

To be published monthly, OS/2 Personal will offer news and reviews of 
software and hardware, provide tips, tricks and hints as well as a regular
 cartoon feature. The publication will also recommend books, review
on-line  services and report on issues that are important to OS/2 users.

OS/2 Personal will publish its first issue on 1st of August and will be 
available for download from a number of ftp sites around the world,
including  ftp.cdrom.com in the United States and Demon Internet in
London, England;  copies will also be available in the OS2USER Forum on
CompuServe. For those  who do not have a modem, OS/2 Personal is available
on diskette and can be  sent via US Mail or Federal Express.
