See how an all-OS/2 business works!

by Mark Kerzner

Lumature is a lighting and furniture store 
in Scottsdale that uses OS/2 as the only 
operating system. In 1994, we installed Warp 
Connect on all workstations, and shortly 
afterwards the Novell 3.x server was 
replaced with OS/2 Warp Server Advanced.

At the July meeting of the Phoenix OS/2 
Society, Inc, on Tuesday, July 13, LUMATURE 
will be opening its doors -- including the 
door to the computer room! See first hand 
how each and every aspect of this business 
is run on networked computers running on 
OS/2 Warp. From point-of-sale workstations, 
to graphics workstations that create all 
labels, price tags and advertisements, to 
office/accounting computers, you will 
observe how this well OS/2 can run a 
business.

But we already know all that, didn't we?

Light fantastic

Experience how every light fixture, table 
lamp, and wall light in the showroom can be 
controlled from "virtual" switches created 
on workstation screens. Using the shareware 
HOUSE/2, every display fixture can be turned 
on, off, or dimmed from the showroom 
computers. Every light can be addressed 
individually or as a member of a group.

For us, this has proven to be the best 
method of showroom lighting control ever 
devised. August 10 will be the first 
anniversary of the opening of this showroom, 
and of this new system. 

Compared to the traditional direct-wiring of 
each light to a manual wall switch for a 
showroom this size, our initial savings with 
this computerized lighting control system  
was more than $70,000. When you have 
hundreds of display locations in a 
commercial building, with very high 
ceilings, it involves running metal pipe 
conduit from each fixture to its own wall 
switch. With many locations, the dollars add 
up very quickly. See this amazing system and 
try it yourself !

When and where

LUMATURE is at 15620 North Scottsdale Rd, 
north of Greenway and about 1/2 mile south 
of Bell, on the west side of the street. 
Using other furniture stores as landmarks, 
that's north of Robb & Stucky and just south 
of Thomasville.

Although the LUMATURE showroom closes to the 
public at 6:00pm, the doors will be open to 
POSSI meeting attendees, and staff will be 
there to demonstrate and answer questions. 
And also -- just in case you see some items 
in the store that you would like to own -- 
ask Mark about special pricing discounts for 
POSSI members and guests.

The Phoenix OS/2 Society 
(http://www.possi.org) is the world's 
largest user group devoted to IBM's OS/2 
operating system, with members in 16 
countries and 48 US States. Our intent is to 
enable OS/2 users to help one another get 
the most out of the operating system. 
Membership includes a subscription to the 
monthly print magazine, extended attributes. 
You can request a free sample of the 
magazine from the Society's Web site.
