of using 30MB fixed disk systems.
o PS/2 Model 80 (8580-121, 321, A21 and A31).
The GEARBOX (TM) Model 800 (7568) with appropriate fixed disk
and memory is supported by OS/2 Extended Edition Version 1.2, in
addition to the previously announced Industrial Computers.
The following Ethernet adapters are supported by OS/2 Extended
Edition Version 1.2 for the GEARBOX Model 800 Industrial Computer:
o 3Com (1) EtherLink/MC (1) (Model 3C523)

LIMITATIONS: A previously announced limitation has been removed.
3270 host-directed print is now supported when an AS/400 (TM) System
is used for passthrough to a System/370 (TM).
Fonts contained on the FontSet option diskettes for the
following printers are not supported:
o IBM 4207 Proprinter (TM) X24 Model 1 and X24E Model 2

PLANNING INFORMATION
MEMORY MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUE: A new memory management technique is
available to OS/2 Extended Edition Version 1.2 and OS/2 Standard
Edition Version 1.2 users.
The OS/2 program now allows the DOS mode application storage
area, up to 512KB, to be swapped to disk at the user's option
whenever the user is not interacting with the DOS mode screen group.
By swapping the DOS mode application storage area to disk, up to
512KB becomes free for use by OS/2 applications. System performance
may be noticeably improved by reducing the amount of swapping
required to meet multiple OS/2 applications demands for storage.
The following OS/2 Extended Edition Version 1.2 publications
are available. IBM OPERATING SYSTEM/2 EXTENDED EDITION VERSION 1.2
