DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack Provides New Solutions For OS/2


Boston, MA -- Development Technologies, Inc. (DevTech) has just announced the
DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack, a powerful package that provides users with a
wide selection of invaluable OS/2 productivity products.  The DeskMan/2
Productivity Pack includes DevTech's award-winning DeskMan/2 v.1.51b, and
leading edge software from Proportional Software Corporation, Sundial Systems
Corporation, WarpSpeed Computers and BonAmi Software.  Combining five powerful
OS/2 utility and productivity tools in one package has been called nothing
less than the "OS/2 survival kit" by many in the OS/2 community.
Additionally, the package includes a free upgrade to DeskMan/2 version 2.0
when it becomes available and money saving coupons for product upgrades.

The Productivity Pack includes:

DevTech:  DeskMan/2 v1.51b-- The premier solution to manage and enhance the
OS/2 environment.  This best selling package allows users to install,
configure, backup, secure and manage desktops and objects locally and
remotely.  The VUEMan/2 component brings new meaning to "multi-tasking,"
enabling users to create as many as 81 virtual desktops.  A simple drag and
drop, point and click interface makes DeskMan/2 easy to use for novice OS/2
users, while its API and full CID enablement provide powerful command and
control of the OS/2 operating environment for corporate administrators.
DeskMan/2 v.1.51b includes features that were previously only available in the
Corporate Edition, such as password protection of objects and Workplace Shell
Audit Trail.  Users who purchase the DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack will receive
a FREE upgrade to DeskMan/2 version 2.0 when it becomes available.

Proportional Software Corporation:  DCF/2 Lite -- The "on the fly" data
compression package for OS/2.  Use the DCF/2 to create multiple,
HPFS-formatted virtual disks on top of your existing FAT or HPFS formatted
partitions, network drives-- even floppies!  DCF/2 is on-line backup without
an expensive tape unit or individually archived files.

"The DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack is beneficial to the OS/2 Community because
it provides the customer with a number of powerful OS/2 tools and applications
that he/she might not otherwise be aware of -- all for one, low price," states
Proportional Software President, Max Eidswick.

Sundial Systems Corporation:  Relish -- The ideal personal time manager!
Winner of 1994 OS/2 Magazine's Editor's Choice Award!  Flexible scheduling
functions combine with the Workplace Shell drag-and-drop environment for ease
and convenience.  Relish's intuitive approach to personal calendaring is
grounded in a multi-tasking, multi-threaded design.  Combine that with
drag-and-drop enhancements, time-saving features and extensive flexibility to
manage time and tasks with ease.

"Productivity and value are a hard combination to beat, " states Sundial
Systems Corporation President, Randall Flint. "DeskMan/2, Relish, and all the
other pieces of the Productivity Pack - together with the inherent power of
OS/2's Workplace Shell - give the buyer an incredible array of productivity
tools for an unbeatable price," he adds.

WarpSpeed Computers:  The Graham Utilities -- The most comprehensive suite of
disk, file and general utilities specially designed for OS/2.  Combined with
networking options, HPFS utilities and system diagnostics, The Graham
Utilities provide all OS/2 users with invaluable support.  This Limited
Edition specifically created for the Productivity Pack contains 15 powerful
functions of the 52 invaluable applications and modules that are available in
the full version.

"We are excited to enter into the OS/2 marketplace at this time, as it is
growing at a totally unexpected rate.  The utilities were conceived to fill
the rather large and obvious hole in the OS/2 market:  the lack of consistent
and easy to use utilities which everyone needs to manage their systems on a
day to day basis," states Chris Graham, President/Director, WarpSpeed
Computers.

BonAmi Software Corporation:  CPU Monitor Plus, Special Edition -- The
powerful tool to manage your OS/2 computer!  CPU Monitor Plus is your complete
package of advanced performance and analysis tools, all integrated into one
powerful solution.  Use CPU Monitor Plus to continuously monitor and display
CPU, RAM, Disk, COM port activity, as well as dynamically monitor and control
your OS/2 programs! Let the powerful analysis engine rip through raw system
data and give you graphs or text, percentages, ratios, bytes or seconds.

"Our objective was to provide OS/2 users with a `one-stop solution' that would
truly allow them to exploit the power and performance of OS/2.  We are pleased
with the enthusiastic cooperation by the ISV's and our Marketing Partners that
has resulted in the DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack," stated DevTech President,
Noel Bergman.

The DeskMan/2 Productivity Pack will be released mid-July and will be
available for $99.95.
