Perhaps the biggest change to the newsletter is that it is now only available in standard HTML format suitable for use with web browsers, such as the Netscape Navigator or IBM's WebExplorer. The publisher believes this approach will make OS/2 CONNECT more readily available to the general public (anyone with a web browser). NOTE: Due to file size constraints, the HTM files may make reference to WAV and other ZIP files that will not be included in the CON0497.ZIP packet of files. This may also include the "Graphic of the Month." The INF version of the newsletter, requiring the use of the standard OS/2 "view" utility has been abandoned.
