3G Review by Lea Bromley. Here’s another award-winning clip art package
from the folks at 3G Graphics!! This package contains 6 disks full of
well-designed images (Encapsulated PostScript format). I enjoyed 3G’s other
images (Business, Accents & Borders, and Graphics & Symbols) so much that I
jumped at the chance to see and use their newest collection. “People 1” is
loaded with useful images. I attached some samples to this article but
please note that there are over 200 images included in this set. Besides
all the great EPS clip art, there is a User’s Guide with all sorts of
helpful tips, hints and ideas. It explains how to use the images to best
advantage.

BannerMania Review - If you have ever made banners with the Macintosh, but
felt that your creativity was stymied because the program would print only
one size of lettering, and that was in black (like the banner program which
comes with Adobe Type Manager), then you may want to look at Brøderbund’s
program called BannerMania.™ The only purpose of this program is to make
banners, and it is designed to let you create more different types of
banners than you ever imagined possible—and in color! Reprinted from Mac

Battle of Britain a review by Don Schmid. I've never been much of a
computer game player. I don't have the reflexes for the high-speed
arcade-type games nor the patience for the text and strategy games. And I
never seem to have enough time either. But this past Christmas, I decided
to get some software to play. Unfortunately, the Macintosh universe of
game software is small compared that for DOS machines. It was hard to find
something I would like. Being 40, the sound of "Battle of Britain" was
appealing–a combat flight simulator which wasn't a jet requiring youthful
reflexes. Or so I thought.

Boston EXPO Report - If you’ve ever been to a Macworld Expo, you’ll
understand how hard it is to communicate the total experience of this huge
affair. For four days, over 400 companies gave demos in the 300,000 square
feet of exhibition space spread out over two large exposition centers. In
addition, there were approximately 100 conferences and seminars in many
different categories, from “How To Get Started On Your Macintosh” to “The
Intergalactic LocalTalk Update and Clinic,” “3D Modeling Demystified,” and
“Virtual Reality.” Even the published program was over 130 pages long
Several SMUG members attended—we’ll try to make this report a composite of
all of our observations.

order. The November issue of Macworld ran a review of DesignStudio by Steve

DiagnoSYS Review - We all know that the Macintosh is a friendly and easy to
personalize computer system. Many users have added extensions (INITs) and
control panel devices (CDEVs) to add features normally unavailable
sometimes too many. Menu users also know the frustration of incompatible
applications, INITs, and CDEVs and the difficulty of tracking down the
offending ones. DiagnoSYS, from Baseline Publishing, is a tool to help in
the solution to this problem. This is a review from SMUG.

HAM Review - Remove the Fat from your Apple Menu - As hard drives get
bigger and bigger, navigating through them becomes a more and more daunting
task. The Macintosh Finder, model of simplicity and intuitiveness, has
begun to be cumbersome to many power users. Finding files and applications
which are nested in folders several layers deep simply takes time and makes
clutter. System 7 has helped by allowing applications and documents to be
placed in the Apple menu, but the result of this has been that Apple menus
themselves have grown so long that they become awkward. A Review of HAM by

Once Upon a Time...in review by Karl Keierleber
"Once Upon a Time" is a program designed for the young story teller in your
life. Future authors write, illustrate and publish their works all from the
comfort of home. My trio of story tellers faces beamed as each of their
stories emerged from the printer. The graphics only needed the finishing
touch from a crayon or colored pencil and each child was now a published
writer. The books became a source of great pride. This review attempts to
give some of the features of the program.

million potential buyers for whom their new systems were developed? I did
some shopping soon after the Performas began appearing on the shelves, next

Personal Press Review - Now in version 2.0, Personal Press competes with
Publish It! Easy from Timeworks (see the January 1992 issue of Mac Monitor
for Barton Brown’s review of Publish It! Easy) and vies for your attention
in a crowded market of powerful word processors. You may want to re-read
the Personal Press (version 1.0) review by L. Frank Turovich, of the
Arizona Macintosh Users Group, in the December 1991 issue of Mac Monitor.
It’s time for an update.

written in response to the growing number of Mac users (both new and

needlessly blame themselves when this happens. The article examines what
(and who) the REAL culprits are, the "Myths of the Mac" and what people can
do to become better Mac users. Especially relevant for new users! Apple
