Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! Here we are, once again. In three short months, OS/2 e-Zine! has grown to a size that it takes a significant effort from contributors all over the globe to bring it to you each month. I hope we manage to do a little more and improve a little bit with each issue, but you'll be the judges of that. If we do, it's largely due to our financial sponsors and many volunteers so please don't hesitate to contact them from the links provided and send them a personal thank you.

One thing you may notice if you do this, is that all our contributors are male. I know there are female OS/2 enthusiasts out there--Janet Gobeille ("godmother" of Team OS/2) and Melissa Woo (maintainer of the Stupid OS/2 Tricks WWW page) to name a few, and there are many more that have subscribed to OS/2 e-Zine!. So my question to the women is: "Why don't you want to contribute?" Do you think it's a "guy" thing? Is it something I said? Something I did? C'mon ladies, we want your input too!

And speaking of Janet Gobeille, our next issue will be featuring an interview with her. Our interviewer, Matt Ion, will be taking questions to ask her when he meets her at this year's COMDEX PacRim. So if you've been dying to find out something and you think she has the answer, send in your requests with "Janet Questions" in the subject line.

Aside from all that, there has been a lot of OS/2 news since our last issue. IBM has made some aggressive moves forward in the Warp product family with the release of the Netcomber Internet suite and Warp Server II betas. These releases, coupled with the development activity centered on Merlin and its avian cousins should be enough to quell the doubts about OS/2's future of even the most sceptical of industry observers. Of course, many things should be. . .

If you want to do your part to reinforce the world's perception of end-user support for OS/2, Ziff Davis is currently (at the time of this writing) running a survey designed to elicit information about Windows 95 usage. The survey asks, if you do not use Win95, what your primary OS is. I urge every OS/2 user reading this editorial to jump over to Ziff Davis right now and make your voice heard!

And don't forget to come back and enjoy this issue. We've put together our usual blend of information, entertainment and offbeat commentary on all things OS/2. Remember, we value your comments and our lines never close! E-mail us day or night.
