- Welcome, to another issue of CTM. The first issue was hailed as a
- big hit, which pleased me. I do try to write with the novice in mind. Some
- of you more technical people may find mundane explanations a bit boring. I
- have pored over many a computer magazine. Of all Byte is a good magazine.
- It is also a highly technical magazine.
-
- I try to write to the person who does not know a bit from a
- byte. As the months progress we will add and delete things from the
- magazine. These will be according to response from you, the reader. I have
- put it a Q & A column this month. Many time people ask what the different
- types of memory are. I explain it. Each month I will try to include several
- Q&A's.
-
-
- I had the pleasure of going to Carnegie Hall in June. It was for
- the unveiling of a computer sound card. A truly moving experience. Read my
- article on it, in this issue.
-
- We have also covered the price break. Is this good or bad for the
- consumer? Is this the time to buy? Check out my editorial.
-
- This month I have also included three more new features. The first
- is 'Coming Soon,' and it contains a partial list of software or hardware we
- will be writing about in the coming months.
-
- The other is System Information. I had one reader complain that he
- uses Norton Desktop for Windows 2.0 (see review this issue), and it STILL
- runs slowly on his system. He only has 2 MB RAM on his system. So I decided
- to show you what I have. Unless otherwise stated, ALL reviews are done on
- this system. Check out System Info.
-
- The third is a list of the boards that I call, where CTM is. Have
- you read about software that you would like to know more about? You can
- contact me through one of the boards that I have listed in Where can I get
- CTM? While CTM is on more boards than I list, these are the ones I call to
- check for messages.
-
- There are eight reviews this month, which should please almost
- everyone. I have a game (Where is Carmen Sandiego?), several DOS
- applications, and several Windows applications.
-
- Until next month I hope that you have no bad sectors in your life!
