IBM advertised OS/2 2.0 developer's tools in January '93 Dr. Dobbs Journal.

Strangely, in a double page ad on pp. 26-27 Worklframe/2 is offered at
discount to $295.00 total cost through 9/5/93; however, in a single page
ad on pp. 55 Workframe/2 is offered at $895.00-$520.00 = $375 through
4/6/93.  It sounds like the Workframe/2 offer has been extended through
September 5, 1993 at $295.00 but either that information hasn't filtered
down through all IBM advertising agents and/or the original advertisement 
couldn't be changed because a contract was signed to run the original ad
without changes over a several month period (a common advert arrangement).
