-
- The least expensive way to get MMPM/2 is by calling 800-3-IBM-OS2
- (U.S. only) and asking for the OS/2 2.1 beta. MMPM/2 1.0 is contained
- on the CD-ROM. (If you have access to anybody's CD-ROM -- even under
- DOS -- you can create the install diskettes.)
-
- It is extremely likely that MMPM/2 will be bundled with the base
- operating system when OS/2 2.1 is released, and when you upgrade
- you'll get it (to extend beyond the February 28, 1993, license
- expiration for the CD-ROM).
