WiseManager Release 1.2 now generally available.

Serenity Systems will be demontrating the new release of 
the Managed Clients(r) and WiseManager(r) software at Warp 
Expo on Saturday, September 18. Includes expanded 
application support and multi-media support, previously 
unavailable on OS/2 RIPL clients ... now supported with 
WiseClients.

WiseManager automatically creates network clients, 
installing OS/2 and configuring the systems, including SVGA 
support. At Warp Expo West the new software will build six 
clients with differing hardware requiremenst as part of the 
Vendor 100 Progarm, executing a complete network install of 
the OS and 100 applications ... in minutes ... redefining 
the expression, "one button install".

The supported clients will be able to use SoundBlaster, 
multimedia system sound, MIDI and VoiceType. Capabilities 
never before available in this environment. These machines 
will be available for use by hundreds of visitors to the 
exhibit area. 

The demonstration will show how a failing workstation can 
be removed, a new workstation connected and immediately 
back "online" with the complete user desktop intact, 
applications and OS. This is an important feature for 
support of desktop business users, reducing down time to 
the period it takes to plug in another supported PC.

WiseManager is useful to OS/2 accounts and to consultants 
interested in providing management of desktop computers as 
a fee service. A marketing white paper is available to 
qualified consultants explaining how to sell the Managed 
Client as a fee service, minimizing the difficulty normally 
associated with "selling OS/2". An HTML version of the 
paper may be requested from me by email 
(BStJohn@Serenity-Systems.com), or by requesting a Channel 
Partner log on to the Serenity Systems web site,
