IBM Japan has announced two new versions of the OS/2 operating system – the Japanese language version J1.1 for the PS/55 workstation, and the extended English language version 1.0 for the PS/2: the Japanese language version incorporates multi tasking and multi-windowing and will support the Presentation Manager – but IBM won’t even be announcing a price or delivery date until the end of the year, although users of the American version will be able to upgrade free of charge – so they should, because the thing will cost $1,200 in Japan, where it arrives in July.
