The $375 offer is for Workset/2.  Workset/2 includes Workframe/2, Cset/2 and
the OS/2 2.0 Toolkit (this has a separate name, I can't recall the exact 
wording at the moment).  There may be a separate special offer for Workframe/2,
the 4/6/93 date and $375 match the Workset/2 offering, I don't know about
a special offer for Workframe/2.
