MAY "OS/2 CONNECT" NEWSLETTER RELEASED
  
PALM HARBOR, FLORIDA (April 15, 1996) - M. Bryce & Associates, Inc. (MBA)
today announced the release of the May issue of OS/2 CONNECT, a freeware
newsletter distributed through the various computer networks and bulletin
boards.
  
OS/2 CONNECT is THE authoritative source for contact information in the
universe of IBM's OS/2 32-bit operating system.
  
The newsletter is implemented as an INF file suitable for use with the
standard "View" utility (VIEW.EXE) built into OS/2 2.x (or higher). The file
is named CON0596.ZIP (except in Japan where it is labeled as CON0596J.ZIP) 
and
contains the following sections:

NOTE:  Windows users can now view INF files using the new
INF Viewer from SingaLab Pte. Ltd. of Singapore. Patterned
after the OS/2 VIEW facility, the Windows version provides the
same functionality. The utility can be freely obtained from a
variety of sources:
*  Look for WIN_INF.ZIP on most computer networks and bulletin
   boards.
*  A copy of the product is available in IBM's Hyperwise
   (see LIBIPFX.EXE).
*  Use the version of the product accompanying "Just Add OS/2
