Brickles Deluxe v1.2 Released!
Merrimack, New Hampshire, December 13, 1998: Ken Winograd and Space-Time Associates announced today the release of version 1.2 of a fun, exciting Macintosh shareware game called Brickles Deluxe.
Brickles Deluxe is an all-new game based on the game of Brickles and Brickles Plus, first offered in 1985, shortly after the introduction of the first Macintosh.
Brickles Deluxe is not your typical "ball and paddle" game. No way! Brickles Deluxe features adjustable colors and patterns, adjustable ball and paddle sizes, and adjustable speed. Even the number of paddles in the game can be changed. Brickles Deluxe is suitable for everyone from the very youngest children learning to use a mouse, to fast-paced arcade fans. And, wait 'til you hear the new sounds! If you've ever played and enjoyed Brickles or Brickles Plus, you're just going to love Brickles Deluxe!
Brickles Deluxe requires a Macintosh with 256 colors or more.
Brickles Deluxe is available now. For more information, or to download or securely register the program, please visit the Brickles Deluxe web page at:

This tidbit is from:
Dru Richman <mailto:machelpdesk@home.com>
Dallas' WBAP (http://www.wbap.com), the 50,000 watt blowtorch of the Southwest - 820 on your AM dial or live via RealAudio, presents Mick Williams' Cyber Line (http://www.cyber-line.com) every Sunday evening at 7-9 pm CST. This call-in/talk show, which has been 'on-the-air' since December 1995, discusses everything and anything 'cyber.'
The weekly show is dedicated to discussing computer related hardware/software products, Internet access issues, trouble analysis, tips & techniques, etc.. Laws governing and/or limiting your freedom to information are also topics for discussion.
The program accepts input from listeners via telephone and interactively via the Internet enabling callers to talk directly with various representatives from the computer and networking industries. Although the show will deal with serious issues and problems confronting a wide variety of computer users, it will have a unique perspective that adds a little fun and drives away the boredom.
Starting this Sunday (2/28/99) and from then on, on the last Sunday of each month we will feature a two hour show exclusively for and about Macintosh computers. Staff Mac guy Dru Richman - CEO, Mac Help Desk (http://www.machelpdesk.com), will be joined by the rest of the Cyber Line staff, Apple representatives, and maybe even a product manufacturer, for this lively two hour romp through all things Mac.
Call These Live WBAP Talk Lines Sundays 7:00 To 9:00 PM (Central) Metro: 214-787-1820 Toll Free: 1-800-288-WBAP (9227) e-mail: <mailto:host@cyber-line.com>
Mac Users show your support for one of the very few Mac-friendly shows on the airwaves. Listen and call-in on Sunday! __________________________ Digital Guy Sez:
First, a note about a graphic included with the above post depicting (er, no pun intended!) this radio station's coverage area. The only portions of the continental US it DOESN'T cover would be the north east, north west, and Alaska. They cover ALL of Mexico. the 'Net broadcast seems almost redundant in this hemisphere. :-)
The second thing, as you can tell from the "future" start date, is that I'm a bit behind. Things are hopping at Guy's new company (in a good way! :), and frankly I'm swamped please bear with me and I WILL catch up fairly shortly (probably in the next few days at worst).
Thanks!
