OS/2 GETS VENTANA VOODOO TREATMENT 
New Book Demystifies OS/2 2.0 and 2.1

Chapel Hill, NC -- Even to veterans, OS/2 sometimes looks like so much
voodoo. But this hatful of tricks from master OS/2 sorcerer Allen Taylor
lets users quickly translate the mumbo jumbo into the fastest, most
reliable system available for running the PC.

"Books in the Ventana Voodoo series give quick solutions to problems and
answers to questions that occur frequently but are not well-documented
elsewhere," explains author Taylor. "With Voodoo OS/2, readers will learn
to use OS/2 to accomplish more in less time and with less hassle."

Voodoo OS/2 puts the real power of OS/2 to work with a revealing array of
secrets for optimizing efforts and avoiding costly traps. Users at all
levels will discover tips for

* Orienting to OS/2 - launching and navigating safely, desktop
  menu magic, dialog boxes, controls and more.
* Adapting OS/2 - choosing colors, transforming the desktop,
  teaching an old mouse new tricks and otherwise magically
  altering the environment to fit individual styles. 
* Empowering programs - running OS/2, Windows and DOS
  applications, folder and file fetishes and miscellaneous
  program spells. 
* Working wonders with Workplace Shell - manipulating objects,
  window wizardry, finding lost files and other disk tricks.
* Demystifying multimedia - audio and video voodoo, hardware and
  hook-up hocus pocus, enchanting effects and more. 
* Achieving OS/2 mastery - presto productivity, curse-free
  printing, multitasking magic, supernatural setup secrets 
  and more.

Even the most wizened OS/2 wizard will find a surprising spell or two to
transform the first true 32-bit operating system into a tool for top
productivity and creativity.
