They are trained professionals who are familiar with the product as well as new spa ownership concerns. Their expertise will facilitate the enjoyment of your new HOT SPRING spa. IMPORTANT: Watkins Manufacturing Corporation reserves the right to change specifications, or design, without notification and without incurring any obligation. In most cities and counties, permits will be required for the installation of electrical circuits or the construction of exterior surfaces (decks and gazebos). In addition, some communities have adopted residential barrier codes which may require fencing and/or self-closing gates on the property to prevent unsupervised access to a pool (or spa) by children under 5 years Important! of age. Your HOT SPRING spa is equipped with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety Covers and as a result, is usually exempt from most barrier requirements. As a general practice, your local Building Department will inform you of any applicable barrier requirements at the time a permit is obtained for the installation of an electrical circuit. Your HOT SPRING dealer can provide information on which permits may be required.

  • An Overview of the Netware Operating System
    An Overview of the NetWare Operating System Drew Major Greg Minshall Kyle Powell Novell, Inc. Abstract The NetWare operating system is designed specifically to provide service to clients over a computer network. This design has resulted in a system that differs in several respects from more general-purpose operating systems. In addition to highlighting the design decisions that have led to these differences, this paper provides an overview of the NetWare operating system, with a detailed description of its kernel and its software-based approach to fault tolerance. 1. Introduction The NetWare operating system (NetWare OS) was originally designed in 1982-83 and has had a number of major changes over the intervening ten years, including converting the system from a Motorola 68000-based system to one based on the Intel 80x86 architecture. The most recent re-write of the NetWare OS, which occurred four years ago, resulted in an “open” system, in the sense of one in which independently developed programs could run. Major enhancements have occurred over the past two years, including the addition of an X.500-like directory system for the identification, location, and authentication of users and services. The philosophy has been to start as with as simple a design as possible and try to make it simpler as we gain experience and understand the problems better. The NetWare OS provides a reasonably complete runtime environment for programs ranging from multiprotocol routers to file servers to database servers to utility programs, and so forth. Because of the design tradeoffs made in the NetWare OS and the constraints those tradeoffs impose on the structure of programs developed to run on top of it, the NetWare OS is not suited to all applications.

  • The Voyage of Vanguard
    Evolution of Fit: The Voyage of Vanguard Nicolaj Siggelkow Management Department Wharton School 2017 Steinberg Hall – Dietrich Hall University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104 [email protected] tel: (215) 573-7137 Draft Date: January 12, 2001 I would like to thank Daniel Levinthal, Michael Porter, Jan Rivkin, Gabriel Szulanski, Sidney Winter and Mark Zbaracki for helpful comments, and members of Vanguard’s Crew for providing valuable information. All remaining errors are mine. Evolution of Fit: The Voyage of Vanguard Abstract: While firms have frequently been conceptualized as configurations of choices, the evolution of configurations has not received much attention. We start to develop a typology of evolutionary patterns by describing two developmental paths. Patch-by-patch development is characterized by managers’ sequential creation and elaboration of strategic themes, whereas thin-to-thick development consists of an early formulation of strategic themes and subsequent elaboration with supporting choices. A longitudinal study of The Vanguard Group illustrates a proposed approach to identifying the developmental pattern of a particular firm. Moreover, the study yields hypotheses concerning the relationship between the patterns and drivers of a firm’s development. Firms have been conceptualized as systems of highly interconnected choices in a variety of literatures (e.g., Miller, 1981; Milgrom and Roberts, 1990; Porter, 1996; Levinthal, 1997; Whittington, et al., 1999). In these analyses, firms’ choices with respect to activities, policies, organizational structures, capabilities and resources are seen to form complex interdependent systems. Yet firms are generally not born with fully elaborated interconnected systems. Hence, the question arises how these systems evolve over time.

  • Vaporware: Imaginary High-Tech Products and Real Antitrust Liability
    Vaporware: Imaginary H-igh-Tech Products and Real Antitrust Liability in a Post-Chicago World ROBERT PRBNTICE* I. INTRODUCTION In rejecting a consent decree in the antitrust case United States v. Microsoft Corp.,1 Judge Stanley Sporkin noted that "vaporware," the high- technology industry's marketing ploy of preannouncing products that do not exist at the time of the announcement and may never come into existence in anything like their described form,2 "is a practice that is deceitful on its face and everybody in the business community knows it." 3 In part because of his misgivings about Microsoft Corporation's alleged * University Distinguished Teaching Professor and Ed and Molly Smith Centennial Professor of Business Law, Graduate School of Business, University of Texas, Austin, Texas. 1 159 F.R.D. 318 (D.D.C. 1995), rev'dper curiam, 56 F.3d 1448 (D.C. Cir. 1995). The original complaint charged Microsoft with violating sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act in the market for personal computer operating systems for the x86 class of microprocessors. The complaint attacked three of Microsoft's marketing practices: (a) "per processor" licenses by which Microsoft required original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to pay a royalty for each computer the OEM sold regardless of whether it contained a Microsoft operating system; (b) "minimum commitments" distribution practices whereby Microsoft induced OEMs to commit to buy a minimum number of units of Microsoft operating systems under circumstances making it economically unattractive to install any non-Microsoft system; and (c) use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) to discourage independent software developers (ISVs) from developing applications for competing operating systems.

  • Outliner History About This Particular Outliner by Ted Goranson, [email protected]
    ATPO: Outliner History About This Particular Outliner by Ted Goranson, [email protected] Outliner History For a while there, I felt deprived. Yes, Mac OS X is the future, but we sure went through a hard patch until the core applications were brought over the fence. Lost in the shuffle were some dearly loved power tools: Nisus Writer, OneClick, and IdeaKeeper. But there’s fresh light in the homeland as a new generation of power tools is appearing. Many of us are taking advantage of this shift to improve our way of working. Almost certainly in this shift, outlining is bound to play a role in whatever world you build for yourself in your Mac. This new column will track what’s happening in outlining and provide some useful perspectives beyond the average “review.” This month, we give an overview of outlining. In future columns, we’ll drill down into different features, use patterns, philosophies, and specific tools. Macs and Outlining The Mac community has always had more innovative software than their Windows counterparts. Perhaps it is the nature of the community. Possibly it is because every Mac user is a niche customer already, and therefore more interested in niche software. This interest in innovation has often involved the outlining paradigm, sometimes as standalone applications but often embedded in other applications. I am as lazy as the next guy, and generally don’t revert to basic philosophy in evaluating applications. The trigger for my most recent self-examination was the appearance of Circus Ponies NoteBook and its sibling AquaMinds NoteTaker.

  • The Hand That Rocks the Cradle
    In a field with more than its quota of seers, salesmen and motor­ mouthed gurus. there is something reassuringly levelheaded about Gillian Crampton Smith's approach to interaction design. As professor of Computer Related Design (CRD) at the Royal College of Art in London, Crampton Smith directs one of the most progressive new tech­ nology master's-degree programs in the world. Her students and gradu­ ates are snapped up for placements and positions at Apple, Microsoft, Philips, Taligent, Voyager and IDEO. Back in the early '8os, Crampton Smith was one of the first British graphic designers to see the com­ puter's potential and s!J.e expected things to move faster than they did. Hence, perhaps, her caution today, the careful deliberation before she will make a prediction or venture a claim. Things are certainly moving now. Since early 1994, Interval, the Palo Alto-based research corporation, has funded the Computer Related Design department to the tune of £2.5 million ($3-75 million), payable over five years. (Interval has similar relationships with Stanford University and the MIT Media lab.) The week before my visit, CEO David Liddle and 30 Interval personnel were over to present work on musical interfaces, culminating in a "Soundscapes" performance by musician-boffins Thomas Dolby and Michael Brook, for an audience that included the likes of Peter Gabriel. The Royal College of Art's strength, and its appeal for Interval, lies in the way that the CRD department has grown from a genuinely multidis­ ciplinary base. (By contrast, Stanford and MIT's research is strongly rooted in technology, Carnegie Mellon's in graphic design and New York University's in media and television.) "The college is a special place, in that it brings together so many designers of talent from such a range of disciplines," says Crampton Smith.
