Each decade has brought us new challenges - Flower Power, 
Punk Rock or designer underwear: We've survived and 
defeated them all and finally sent them back to where they 
belong. But now our oddest nightmares are coming true - a 
new enemy is sending masses of invaders to infect our 
computers, palmtops, dish washers and even some of the 
coffee-percolators!

The only way to prepare for the final battle is to live 
abstinent (OK, this one isn't _that_ necessary), think 
fast, practice hard and - of course - use the appropriate 
training tool. Therefore, we at Cramon Utilities decided to 
create one of the best training devices ever designed, 
which (as a side effect) is also:

The Ultimate Arcade Game for OS/2.

So: Fasten your seat belts and blast your way through the 
hordes of mutant bugs, spiders and other nasty creatures in 
this original fast-paced galaga style arcade game. Dazzling 
graphics and explosive sounds meet you as you pilot your 
lonely ship trying to free the galaxy from Bills Evil BUGS! 

Stardock Systems Inc. and Cramon Utilities today relased 
B.U.G.S. for OS/2 version 1.56
This upgrade fixes some annoyances with window 
creation/activation and some other minor issues.

It has been the common belief among OS/2 users that the 
OS/2 version of B.U.G.S. has been neglegted compared to the 
Windows version. This is far from true. Even though there 
has been a difference in version numbers the games are, 
except from small differences in their user interfaces, 
equal. To clear this up the new fixpack for the OS/2 
version has brought the version number up to version 1.56 
to match the Windows version.

As something quite new, the full version of B.U.G.S., which 
can be downloaded from Stardocks Commercial Server, is now 
wrapped in a totally new and cool GUI installer developed 
by Douglas Hendrix of Stellar Frontier fame. Thanks to 
Douglas for his help!

Expect to see a release of this cool freeware, 
crossplatform and open-source installer later this year :)
