The Presentation Manager is being ported to UNIX

 HP and Microsoft have announced plans to move the Presentation Manager
 to Unix in a three-phase introduction, according to Vol. 5/No. 43 of
 PC-Week.  The first phase will be available in the first quarter of 1989 and
 will feature the "look and feel" of the Presentation Manager as implemented
 under X-Windows.  The API will be available sometime in 1990 and will 
 allow applications to use the same user interface under both Unix and
 OS/2.  The third phase will incorporate server capabilities similar to
 X-windows.
