MusicShop Review.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:M-O:MusicShop Review.cpt 0 5K 11/10/93 MusicShop Review - This text file is a MusicShop Review by a New Yorker. It starts off...About six weeks ago I dove into music and MIDI head first. Armed with a new keyboard and a Mac, I was determined to erase my traumatic memories of childhood piano lessons. Back then, my fingers failed me, as did my patience, and I quit piano because the frustration level was too high. But now I wanted to try again...with a new high-tech approach. Enter MIDI, a musical language that allows electronic instruments to talk to each other. With MIDI every aspect and nuance of a performance is captured as digital information. Find out what happened!

TouchBase Pro Review.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:T-Z:TouchBase Pro Review.cpt 0 32K 10/28/93 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.

Tabs & Indents.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:T-Z:Tabs & Indents.cpt 0 36K 10/28/93 Tabs & Indents - A New Robin Williams Book - Discovering that there are apparently many others like me out there who have trouble with the way the Mac handles tabs and indents was a great relief to me. For some reason — presumably because of my long history with the typewriter — I have been struggling with these pesky things for years. But Robin Williams (The Little Mac Book, The Mac is not a typewriter, et. al) has written a book which has finally clarified the subject for me. Tabs & Indents on the Macintosh is a tiny (63 pages) book/disk combination whichclearly explains tabs and indents in just the first 20 pages. The rest of the book (and the disk) are devoted to exercises that allow you to practice.

Most of us continually add things to our Macs and our software environment. These additions take the form of new fonts, DAs, Control Panels and Extentions, etc. Ordinarily, because after all it is a Mac, we don't give much thought to the impact these additions may have on our operation system. While most of us are familiar with the problems of Extension conflicts, we seldom realize that these many additions have two other effects on our OS. Speed is the first issue. What happens is that we add things incrementally, one piece at a time. Download to read the rest of this article!

Well, actually, I’ve talked to Macs before, but it was 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.

As currently drafted, the proposal would impose substantial costs and create significant uncertainties, despite the absence of any clear showing that the proposed measures would be either effective or necessary.

(Part 2 of 2 Parts.) Part 1 was published in EFFector Online 4.01). UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES, NEW SOCIAL VULNERABILITIES. The IT revolution has created a whole new range of problems for society - problems which were largely unexpected. Some arise from the propensity of computers to malfunction, others arise from their misuse by humans. As complex industrial societies become more dependent on computers, they become more vulnerable to technological failure because computers have often proved to be unreliable, insecure and unmanageable.

Excel 4 Review.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:D-G:Excel 4 Review.cpt 0 26K 8/11/93 Excel 4 Review - Excel has been the king of Macintosh spreadsheet applications since it was first released in the early days of Macintosh. 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 evolution for both Macintosh and Windows; let’s take a look at how it differs from version 3 and remind ourselves why so many love it.

Battle of BritainReview.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:B-C:Battle of BritainReview.cpt 0 32K 3/22/92 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.

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.

Once Upon a time.cpt MagDL AMUG CD:Files:Mag:M-O:Once Upon a time.cpt 1 25K 1/24/91 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.
