This announcement is from:
Drew Linsalata, <dlinsalata@macconnect.com>
MacConnect - the first and largest Internet Services Provider exclusively for users of the Macintosh Operating System - announced today that it has opened its free Macintosh Webmaster Resource web site at:
<http://www.macwebsite.com>.
Designed as the premiere online source of information on server hardware, software, networking and management issues, macwebsite.com is destined to become the one stop information and education stop for Macintosh website operators.
macwebsite.com officially goes live on October 1, and will initially include:
* A searchable database of Mac server software * Online documentation for the most popular Mac server software packages * Tutorials, link collections and articles covering Macintosh server hardware * A free email list for Macintosh webmasters * A free Internet discussion group dedicated to Macintosh webmasters
By mid October, macwebsite.com will expand to include sections dealing with Macintosh networking and server management.
"Our extensive experience in supporting Mac webmasters convinced us that a comprehensive Mac webmaster education and information site was sorely needed on the World Wide Web. We built macwebsite.com as a way to fill this need," said Drew Linsalata, President and CEO at MacConnect.
Macintosh webmasters are encouraged to visit <http://www.macwebsite.com> to take full advantage of this valuable free resource.

Evangelist Offer
Power On Software, winner of the MacHome Utility of the Year Award for its ACTION Now Utilities debut product, ACTION Files, wants to thank the Evangelist members for the incredible support you have given us since our product rollout earlier this year. We are now proud to introduce our industry-recognized network management suite called the Power On Trio, consisting of On Guard, LAN Commander, and Screen To Screen. Until October 31 (or promotional supplies are exhausted), special pricing is being offered only to Evangelistas at savings of up to 70%. The Trio consists of the following products:
On Guard, which has received a rating of 4 1/2 out of 5 in the October, 1998 issue of MacHome magazine, is a very simple, yet powerful security product that permits a user to access only those portions of the Mac that you want them to. It even permits multiple users on a single computer, with no fear of any user accessing, moving, or deleting any items that do not specifically belong to that user. There is no change to the standard Macintosh interface, so the user is up and running with no supplemental training. In addition to protecting against unauthorized access, On Guard protects against unauthorized copying of files, as well as moving or renaming files. Access to printers can be controlled and the number of copies can be limited. An entire network can be configured literally from a single computer!
LAN Commander offers network installation with a single click. You can clone hard drives, launch or quit applications remotely, shut down and restart computers, and even perform software audits, which customers are finding invaluable with the Y2K issue of locating non-compatible software. LAN Commander also gives you an easy-to-use application status panel so you always know what's happening on your network, plus much more.
The third product in the Trio is Screen To Screen, a low cost solution to the problems of managing a network and a help desk. As a presentation tool, you can conduct focused demonstrations. As a collaboration tool, you can work simultaneously with one or more users. As a maintenance tool, you can control and configure remote computers. As a security tool, monitor an entire network unobtrusively. And do it all without leaving your desk.
Again, with prices beginning as low as $49.95, Power On is offering savings of up to 70% to all members of the Evangelist for this limited time offer. If you would like to try or buy the Trio call Power On at 800-344-9160 or 612-317-0344 or visit our web site at: http://www.poweronsoftware.com/.
Thanks for your support, folks!
