In March,
2001, Blonde Guy started developing Suntan Special. Starting with a
freshly installed OS/2 or eComStation operating system, the Suntan Special
installs a full range of useful software and automatically updates to the
latest fix level. It even has workarounds for incompatible apps.
The code for Suntan Special is compiled with Visual Age C++ version
3.08 and it also make extensive use of REXX.
The Suntan Special CD-Rom is now in beta testing. Contact Blonde Guy
if you want to be a beta tester.
Suntan Special is used internally at Blonde Guy to encapsulate the
knowledge of how to install sets of applications on OS/2 and
eComStation.
Suntan Special also is used to create Recovery CDs using the technology
from Hayo Baan's bootAble.
