etscape Communications Corp. and IBM today
              confirmed plans to release a version of
              Navigator for OS/2 by the end of next month.

              The first version of Navigator for OS/2 is due
              to enter beta testing within the next two
              weeks, with the final version ready for
              downloading when IBM ships OS/2 Warp
              4.0--code-named Merlin--on Sept. 25.

              While not directly integrated into Merlin, the
              OS/2 version of Navigator will be free of
              charge for Merlin users. The browser also will
              run on OS/2 Warp Version 3.0 and be free of
              charge as well. However, users of Version 3.0
              must purchase a Java virtual machine upgrade
              from IBM to add Java support to the browser.
              Pricing for the virtual machine has not been
              announced.

              The first version of Navigator on OS/2 will not
              be the recently introduced Navigator 3.0, but
              instead Navigator 2.02. While the browser will
              initially be a generation old, OS/2 users will
              be able to use the speech recognition
              capabilities integrated into Merlin to surf the
              World Wide Web--a feature found on no other
              platform.

              According to officials, the reason for going
              with the older version of the browser had to do
              with timing and porting issues. IBM officials
              added that when Netscape's next-generation
              browser (code-named Galileo) ships, it will be
              available immediately for OS/2.

              As a result of the deal with Netscape, IBM will
                                                     ^^^^^^^^
              no longer develop its own Web Explorer browser.
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
