Euro Sign Support Information
The Euro Sign is the name given to the proposed currency symbol of the
European Union. According to the European Commission, the Euro will
exist as a currency beginning 1 January 1999, but will only gradually move
into general use with the introduction of coins and notes in 2002.
IBM and various other personal computer industry companies plan to
support the Euro Sign on products released in 1999. For support
information on products released prior to that date, see the appropriate
Web site for your product.
For your computer to support the Euro Sign, a proper combination of both
hardware (computer, keyboard, and printer) and software (operating
systems, application programs, and device drivers) is required.
There are many Web sites that provide Euro Sign information and support
(some are listed below). First, determine the computer hardware and
software you are using. Then, visit the Web sites that apply to your system
for the latest Euro Sign information and support. In many cases, updates
are available for Euro Sign support. These updates can be downloaded and
installed on your computer.
