AVAILABLE

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ANNOUNCEMENT, CHARGES, AND AVAILABILITY
       IBM announces the availability of the IBM Advanced Interactive
Executive (AIX (TM)) Personal System/2 (R) (PS/2 (R)) Operating
System and related licensed programs.  In addition, to previously
announced enhancements, AIX PS/2 Operating System includes support
for additional devices.  IBM AIX PS/2 VS FORTRAN now includes error
flagging for Systems Application Architecture (TM) (SAA) level 1
support.  IBM AIX PS/2 Workstation Host Interface Program supports
communication with an MVS/XA (TM) host.  IBM AIX Access for IBM Disk
Operating System (DOS) Users and IBM X-Windows for IBM DOS support
additional IBM personal computers.
       The availability date for asynchronous communication support
in the AIX PS/2 Operating System using the IBM Realtime Interface
Co-Processor Multiport/2 (#6263) with the Eight-Port RS-232 Interface
Board (#6265) is delayed to fourth quarter 1989.
       The volume discount category and product classification are
changed for IBM Access for DOS User and IBM X-Windows for IBM DOS.
       A reduced price option of the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System is
announced for customers who require a maximum of two concurrently
logged-on users of the AIX PS/2 system.

OVERVIEW (Highlights, Description)
HIGHLIGHTS
o   Enhancements to IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System
    -   Expanded support for IBM ASCII displays, IBM printers and
        other devices
    -   Support in Graphics Support Library (GSL) for IBM 8514 Color
        Display.
o   Announcement of reduced price IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System for
    one and two users
o   Additional models of IBM Personal Computer and IBM Personal
    System/2 supported by IBM AIX Access for DOS Users and IBM
    X-Windows for IBM DOS
o   IBM AIX PS/2 VS FORTRAN includes error flagging for SAA level 1
    support.
o   Changes in machine and programming requirements
DESCRIPTION
       In addition to function described in the referenced
Programming Announcements, the following enhancements are included:
o   IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System
    -   Support for the following IBM displays:
        --  IBM 3162 ASCII Display Station (3161 mode)
        --  IBM 3164 ASCII Display Station (3161 mode)
        --  Support in GSL for the IBM 8514 Color Display
    -   Support for the following printers:
        --  IBM 4201 Proprinter (TM)
        --  IBM 5202 Quietwriter III (R)
    -   Support for the following device:
        --  Ungermann Bass NICps/2 Adapter 1542
NOTE:  This device can be ordered from IBM; it is not an IBM product.
Other commercially available adapters and associated device drivers
may provide an alternative solution.
o   A reduced price option of the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System for
    customers who require a maximum of two concurrently logged-on
    users of the AIX PS/2 system.  Customers who require a maximum of
    two concurrently logged-on users should order the IBM AIX PS/2
    Operating System (1-2 User Option) (#4927).  Customers who
    require up to 16 concurrently logged-on users should order the
    AIX PS/2 Operating System (1-16 User Option) (#4907).  For
    authorization to support greater than 16 logged-on users, contact
    your IBM representative.
o   IBM AIX PS/2 Workstation Host Interface Program supports
    connection to an IBM host running MVS/XA.
o   IBM AIX Access for DOS Users support has been extended to
    additional Personal System/2 models.
o   IBM X-Windows for IBM DOS support has been extended to additional
    IBM Personal Computers and Personal System/2 models.
o   IBM AIX PS/2 VS FORTRAN provides an error indicator for Systems
    Application Architecture (SAA) level 1 support.
       The following changes are made:
o   IBM AIX PS/2 Usability Services cannot be initiated from multiple
    concurrent windows on the console terminal when used with IBM AIX
    PS/2 X-Windows as stated in the original announcement.
o   The GSL is included in the IBM AIX PS/2 Application Development
    Toolkit rather than in the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System as
    originally announced.  However, the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System
    includes run time support for GSL.
o   The availability date for 8-port asynchronous communication
    adapter support in the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System using the
    IBM Realtime Interface Co-Processor Multiport/2 (#6263) installed
    with the Eight-Port RS-232 Interface Board (#6265) is delayed to
    fourth quarter 1989.  While IBM makes no representations or
    warranties regarding alternative 8-port solutions, IBM
    anticipates that there may be alternative solutions available
    from other vendors.
o   The volume discount category and product classification are
    changed for IBM Access for DOS Users and for IBM X-Windows for
    IBM DOS.
o   The programs in this announcement count toward the total quantity
    of products in Category G, eligible for a maximum discount of
    30 percent at a quantity of 40; and Category C, eligible for a
    maximum discount of 33 percent at a quantity of 15.

        Operating System (5713-AFL)
    -   The necessary communications devices to facilitate connection
        to the network
    -   A compatible X-Windows (based on X Window System Version 11
        by MIT) application.  Character-based applications that do
        not directly interact with an X-Windows program may be
        brought up within IBM X-Windows for IBM DOS on the DOS
        workstation by bringing up an aixterm on the AIX host, then
        starting the application within the aixterm.  Aixterm is an
        X-Windows client program delivered with AIX X-Windows.
    -   IBM AIX PS/2 systems require IBM AIX PS/2 TCP/IP (5713-AEW).
o   The IBM AIX PS/2 VS FORTRAN, IBM AIX PS/2 VS Pascal and IBM AIX
    PS/2 C Language licensed programs require the use of the IBM AIX
    PS/2 Application Development Toolkit licensed program in addition
    to the IBM AIX PS/2 Operating System.
o   IBM AIX Access for DOS Users requires attachment to at least one
    appropriately configured IBM processor running an IBM AIX
    Operating System with the IBM DOS Server function installed.  The
    AIX PS/2 does not require the separately ordered IBM AIX PS/2
    Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol licensed program
    as originally specified.
