- 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

- 4 New Peachpit Press Books - I recently made up a list of recommended books
- to give to a designer who was just getting started on the Mac. She needed
- to familiarize herself with basic Mac operating system usage and computer
- typography conventions, as well as the major Mac design applications -
- FreeHand, Photoshop, and QuarkXPress. After listing eight or ten books, I
- made a surprising discovery - all of the books on my list were published by
- Peachpit Press. Coincidence? What if I had to recommend books on PageMaker,
- Microsoft Word, Claris Works, or FileMaker Pro — or even more esoteric
- topics such as macros, font management, or resource editing? Holy mackerel,
- Peachpit Press has it all! Find out what their latest releases are!

- 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.

- Every new spreadsheet program that comes along must compare itself to
- Excel; that explains why there are not too may other Macintosh spreadsheet
- programs to choose from. When Lotus 1-2-3 on PC compatibles was the name of
- the game, Excel crashed the party by arriving on Macintosh. Now that
- Windows has gained popularity for those same PC compatibles, Excel is
- there, too, as the leading spreadsheet application. Version 4 is the latest

- HAM Review - Remove the Fat from your Apple Menu - As hard drives get

- 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

- usually under my breath — and hardly printable. The big difference is that
- today the Mac that I spoke to heard me and responded. “Connie, shut down.”
- “Are you sure you want to do that?” “Connie, cancel.” The Mac I spoke to
- today — the Mac that executed my spoken commands was a new Quadra 840av,
- officially announced today by Apple. The particular unit I interacted with
- was named Connie, although it began the day with the name Phil (and with a
- deeper voice) — gender change being as simple an operation as a quick trip
- to a Control Panel. See what Jim Alley of SMUG thinks of the av's!

- TouchBase Pro Review - TouchBase, the contact management software par
- excellance, has recently been upgraded to TouchBase Pro, and it sports
- numerous welcome new features. TouchBase has been managing all of the
- contacts for Mac Monitor for several years, so I was eager to test the new
- version. I wasn’t disappointed. TouchBase Pro lets you keep extensive
- information in an “electronic Rolodex” that goes far beyond the
- capabilities of its analog counterpart. You can store, retrieve, sort, and
- print out all of your business and/or personal contacts. TouchBase will
- even dial your phone for you — and log the action for a permanent record.
