-
- * Support for Remote Boot (RIPL)
- * Private and global DOS/MS Windows support
- * IPX/SPX support for enhanced mode MS Windows applications

- with the OS/2 book display program already on your system)

- not require much disk space, the documentation is now available as a
- standard part of the client kit download rather than as a separate
- download from NetWire.
