     We at Cutting Edge Online would like to inform you of the products we
currently have released and their cost. You may buy these products after trying
them for 30 days, at this time you must either pay for the product you're
using, if applicable, or remove it from your machine.

     You may purchase all of the JM_ PCBoard PPE's for a low cost of $50.00.
This entitles you to all future upgrades of our current PPE's and any future
PPE we make at no additional cost.

     We've been PCBoard System Operators since 1989 and know that the cost of
software for a system operator is quite expensive. Even though $5 may not seem
like a lot if you multiply it by 10 or 20 it adds up quite quickly. This is
our reason for our "special" SysOp deal to purchase the entire power pack for
such a low cost. We've been around for several years and our programs will be
around just as long. With our continued comittment to serving the online
community if we ever would happen to "close shop" and know that it will most
likely not be possible for us to re-open our online service, we will release
ALL of our source codes to each and everyone of our paying members. This is
our guarantee to you that we stand behind our product and are committed to
providing you with the best online software around. We will still hold the
copyright to our program, you will not be able to re-release it to the public,
but you will be able to make sure the software continues to operate on your
system.

     The following is a list of the products which are currently being
published by Cutting Edge Online:

Automated File Uploader - $10.00 - Would you like to make uploading files to
        your system easier? Well, look no further. When a user enters U they
        usually see the enter filename prompt. No more! Well, almost no more.
        They will be asked if this is a public or private upload to the
        system. If it's private they will be asked for a name and description.
        If it's public they will be asked if they would like to enter the
        filename and enter a description or upload the files and then enter a
        description if a FILE_ID.DIZ is not found in the file. A user could
        easily upload a file by just pressing enter three times and be sending
        his file(s) with no other intervention.

Automatic LogOff - $5.00 - Dispalys a 10-second graphical countdown or a
        standard countdown if your users don't have graphical capability. A
        nice little "extra" to add to your system and your users will be
        entirely amazed at a program that seems to be entirely built into
        PCBoard.

BBS Lister - $10.00 - BBS Lister is a your complete solution for finding and
        adding an online service. With its comprehensive and easy to follow
        menu structure you will be able to easily navigate this system with
        online help only a short keystroke away. With the features that are
        currently implemented and the many more which are planned to be added
        you have at your finger tips one of the most powerful, customizable
        and maintenance free listing programs on the market today.

Clear Frozen Node - $5.00 - Do you have a multi-node system and have users
        accidently logoff the system without the system catching on that the
        user is no longer there and they call back, but on another line and
        they get told that they're currently online! If so, this program will
        ask them if they would like to logoff the alternate node, be logged off
        the system and then call back. This is a great program and works only
        if the person has successfully logged onto the system with their name
        and password.

Command Line Replacement - $5.00 - How about an enhanced command prompt line for
        PCBoard you ask? Well, here it is. It will allow you to display a
        random tagline, quote, business advertisement, etc to your users. You
        may also use the /ADD command to add a tagline to the system remotely
        or view every tagline, quote, etc locally or remotely. A must have and
        easy to use program.

eXpert Mode Changer - $5.00 - This will ask your users to confirm whether or
        not they want to turn on/off the displaying of the novice menus. A
        definate must and a must have utility if you have new users, and don't
        we all.

FileMenu - $15.00 - How about categorizing your file areas, showing your users
        a count of your files and bytes for each directory? You say you can't
        do that! Wrong! You can with FileMenu and it's easy too. Your users
        will be able to more easily navigate your file areas while you show
        your users exactly what's in each directory. Now with the option to
        have or not have categories. The new way, with no categories can be up
        and running within minutes while the categories to make a more complete
        feel can take anywhere from 1-2 hours. It's your choice and easy to
        use. Features everything the standard PCBoard F command does plus shows
        the totals of files/bytes with many options. You can specify if it
        should show 0-byte file/directories, categories, etc.

Graphics Mode Changer - $5.00 - Allow your users to easily change their
        graphics mode. You know PCBoard's (M)ode command is nice, but your
        users probally don't know all that the (M)ode command will do for
        them. This brings out all of the functions of the (M)ode command and
        displays them in an easy to understand matter for your users.

Interactive Chat - $25.00 - Are you tired of using PCBoard's internal CHAT
        program and want to try the only full featured PPE chat program made
        for PCBoard? Look no further we are the ONLY PCBoard chat replacement
        PPE available and for good reason. We have everything that a full
        featured chat program could have except they CAN NOT communicate
        directly with PCBoard. We can! The program has action commands and
        everything else you could look for in a chat program.

Message Counter - FREE - This is a program which creates a bulletin or other
        file, as described by you, as to the number of files you have on your
        system. This is completely 100% SysOp definable and multilingual.

Message Footer - FREE - Out of a challenge of a fellow SysOp who wanted to have
        a lightbar driven message save function out comes Message Footer. An
        easy to use, SysOp friendly message save light bar. This program will
        fit into any lightbar environment easily and quickly.

Name Inputter - FREE - With all the "little things" we SysOp's add to our
        systems even the smallest change can be noticable, yet un-noticable.
        Take Our Name Inputter For Instance It Will Capitalize The First
        Character Of A Persons Name And The Rest In Lower Case, Then If They
        Press The Spacebar And Enter Their Last Name It Will Also Be In Upper
        And Lower Case Just Like This Sentence You're Reading Now. Your users
        may notice it, but won't! It's so simple it should have been done
        before. This version is also very multitasker friendly, SysOp
        definable, multilingual and will allow you to place files before each
        entry.

National Debt Calculator - FREE - This will calculate specifically how much the
        United States Government is in Debt. This is a great program to keep
        users appraised of the status of their country. Our objective with this
        program is not to downgrade the greatest country in the world, our
        humble opinion, but to make notice for the public to know how much
        money their government owes and to hopefully make a large enough uproar
        to get them to eliminate it.

New File Scanner - $5.00 - Would you like to allow your users to scan for new
        files when they logon as some other BBS packages do? If so this is the
        product you're dying for! It will prompt your users if they would like
        to scan for new files when they logon or not.

OneLiners - $5.00 - Do you want to pick up user participation while not making
        it seem you want to pick up user participation? Then we have just what
        you need. It's called OneLiners and is just that. It will allow your
        users to read each others oneliners and ADD their own! Can be used as
        a logon, logoff or anywhere else within PCBoard. It can make your
        system seem more active and actually pickup the activity level on your
        system. Give it a try today!

Page Length Changer - $5.00 - How many of your users know exactly how many
        lines they have in their terminal? I've found out over the years that a
        lot of users think they have 0 (unlimited) number of lines. This is why
        I came up with a 100% fool proof method. What it does is count down
        from a pre-defined number of lines and shows the user exactly how many
        lines they trully do have. All they have to do is enter the number that
        is on the top of their screen and they're now perfectly configured for
        their terminal program. It couldn't be simpler.

PPE Executer - $5.00 - We all know that PCBoard has the built in PPE command,
        but how many of us really use it? I've made a PPE which will make
        running PPE's easy for both local and remote use. If you're a SysOp
        and would like to try out a PPE before you add it to your CMD.LST then
        this program may be just what you're looking for.

Protocol Selector - $5.00 - Will provide a more graphical looking interface for
        when your users select their file transfer protocol. It will also see
        if the batch files are available, if external, to see if the protocol
        really is available for them. Simple to use and setup.

PullDown Menu System - $5.00 - Do you want a "graphical" interface, but don't
        wish to have RIPscrip (tm)  graphics on your system or some of your
        users don't have RIPscrip capability. Well then why not provide them
        with a Pulldown menu? It's easy to use, setup, 100% configurable,
        multilingual, and maintenance free. If you've tried the others out
        there and felt they were missing something don't worry, we've already
        got it in our package just for you.

Quick Back - $10.00 - A simple to use callback verifier. It may not be as
        pretty and feature rich as some of the products out there, but it does
        its job and it does it well. Calls your user, verifies them and logs
        right back off if they're not a local call. Simple to setup, simple to
        use.

Quick Scan - $5.00 - Provides a help menu for use with the read command. This
        100% SysOp definable program will allow you to have unlimited number of
        help menus, RIPscrip support, and multilingual support. This is a great
        addition to your PCBTEXT file or just to show your users what they can
        do if they press (R)ead and enter.

Quote of the Day - $5.00 - Will display the Quote of the Day which comes from
        a list of over 5,000 public domain quotes. The quote will change for
        each time the caller logs on. This may also be used as a command in
        your menu so that they can read some quotes while online.

Resume Flag - $10.00 - Have you ever had a user accidently, always, you hang
        them up and they had files flagged for download? If not I sure would
        like to meet you! We all have had this happen to us and know that if
        we have files flagged and then call back we have to start all over
        again recreating the wheel. No longer! With the advent of "Resume
        Flag" you will no longer have your users griping that they lost carrier
        as they will be able to reflag their download list if they so desire or
        if they don't.

SysOp Commands - $5.00 - Would you like to provide some of your users with the
        SysOp commands, but don't want to give them SysOp access? If so, we
        have just what you need. This program will allow you to password and
        security level protect all of your SysOp commands.

System Operator Commentor - FREE - This will allow systems with multiple SysOps
        to have an easy to use, navigate and user friendly setup for selecting
        which system operator they would like a message to be addressed to. You

        to PCBoard's WHO command. As with all of our products this program is
        100% SysOp definable, multilingual and maintenance free.
