Selling The Thin client Concept Peter E. Greulich - IBM Technical Sales Consultant
Time: Location: Status:	Saturday 16th - 3:30 PM Capri Scheduled	Need help understanding the value of "thin clients". This "sales" session will help. By the way, what is a thin client? Why would I need one? What is the difference between an NC and a NetPC? What is the difference between WorkSpace On-Demand and Citrix or Windows Terminal Server. Help me understand "intuitively" the value of thin clients. Could Microsoft ever be thin? What can I do today to get my costs down. Is there a way to blend PC's and thin clients together? Where should I start with this technology? Who could best utilize and benefit from this within my company? What does it mean to design my applications to a "thin client architecture"? Answers to all these questions and more in this session.
Install OS/2 in 29 seconds? Is that possible? Kimwai Cheung - Serenity Systems
Time: Location: Status:	Saturday 16th - 4:30 PM Biltmore I-II Scheduled	Last year, many of WarpStock's attendees saw the prototype version of WiseManager and witnessed the complete installation of OS/2 done to a new machine in 29 seconds. We've been busy over the months, pushing WiseManager forward. Now, instead of "building" an OS/2 machine from the server, WiseManager let's you do it from the client side and from a manager's stations, as well. Flip the power switch of a new machine, type in a name, and 29 seconds later, VIOLA - it's ready!!! Computer Networking just doesn't get any easier.

High Availibility for OS/2 Oliver Mark - IBM, Germany
Time: Location: Status:	Sunday 17th - 9:00 AM Capri Scheduled	This presentation focusses on the importance of high availibility for servers because of a considerable amount of downtime and the resulting cost of these failures. Outlining the criteria which should apply to a high availibility system, it offers a possible solution with the Co-Standby Server for OS/2.
WSoD Remote Client Connection & Pre-Execution Services Dennis Sposato - IBM
Time: Location: Status:	Sunday 17th - 10:30 AM Capri Scheduled	WSoD, Remote Client Connection, enables OS/2 WSoD client machines to boot from the LAN, without the use of a RIPL or PXE chip. Remote Client Connection can help considerably in the implementation and deployment of WSoD because it permits the use of legacy LAN adapter cards in client machines, thus reducing both hardware and administrative costs. This feature also allows the use of alternate MAC addresses. System administrators are no longer required to use the burned in MAC address on the Network Adapter. This alone makes the use of PE Services superior to RiPL/PXE chips. A menu of target hosts can be presented to the user at pre-boot time. This menu, which is installation defined, can direct the user to boot from a particular server, or a particular operating system, including the local hard drive.
Network Computing Software Services Bobby McChesney - IBM
Time: Location: Status:	Sunday 17th - 2:00 PM Malta Scheduled	An overview of the current services that we at the Network Computing Software Division's Rapid Deployment Team offer in the way of OS/2 skills and offerings. One of these offerings is an OS/2 Year 2000 Assessment.
