Subject: $$--More Wallpaper Specials

This special offer is from:

Linda Kaplan, <ljk@infohouse.com>

Last Chance to Purchase Wallpaper, Japanese Wallpaper products, Wallpaper
Pattern Sets, and CAL. All products work perfectly with System versions
6.07 through and including System 8.1, and offer features not currently
available in any other software. This is a liquidation sale that will end
on June 15 or as long as stock lasts, whichever comes first. Payment must
be by check, money order or international money order. Please include
your email address in case of questions.

Exception: If you are ordering from outside the country or very near the
end of the sale period, and email me that your order is forthcoming, I
will hold your order for you for a reasonable period beyond the ending
date.

Yes, there is a break on shipping costs for ordering multiple items.
Please use the base shipping rate for the first item. For inside US add
$.75 (seventy five cents) for each additional item. For orders from
outside the US, add $1 (one dollar) for each additional item.

There is no overlap in patterns among the different items listed, (except
between Wallpaper and Wallpaper Light & Dark).

We do have copies of Japanese versions of Wallpaper, Wallpaper Zebra
Edition, and Wallpaper Light & Dark. These items have not been tested
with current Japanese System software but were KanjiTalk compatible and
very well reviewed in Japan. If you want the Japanese version of any of
the above products, I'll be happy to make them available for the same
price as the US versions. Of course, all the pattern sets will work with
the Japanese versions as well as the US versions of Wallpaper.

1. Wallpaper. The Wallpaper application (Control Panel) allows you to
automatically change your desktop pattern every set period of time,
create and edit desktop patterns in a built-in paint program uniquely
written to work with patterns that repeat. The program includes several
hundred excellent pattern sets which can be installed on your desktop and
edited. This is a prize-winning program which changed the face of the
Macintosh, received hundreds of rave reviews all over the world, was
endorsed by Steve Wozniak, and yes, it still works perfectly! $15 PLUS
shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or $14 Australia, Asia.

2. Wallpaper Zebra Edition. Includes all of #1, but the enclosed patterns
are all Black & White patterns, most not included elsewhere. $15 PLUS
shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or $14 Australia, Asia

3. Wallpaper Light & Dark. Includes all of #1 plus an additional number
of patterns and a screen saver that uses the pattern for its displays.
$18 PLUS shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or $14 Australia, Asia

4. Wallpaper Light & Dark Upgrade. You must be a registered owner of
Wallpaper and you must have Wallpaper in order to install this upgrade.
It includes all the items added to Wallpaper Light & Dark: additional
patterns, screen saver, new version of Wallpaper. $9 PLUS shipping of
either $5 US, $9 Europe or $13 Australia, Asia

5. CAL, a fully customizable calculator that speaks your input and takes

voice input and has numerous features: percent, memory, a tape that is
printable and copyable, negate function, clear and many others. It can be
sized and colored, and data can be exported. It also includes a calendar,
appointment keeper (with reminders), and a formula editor. Don't use the

INIT (you don't need it and it does have problems) -- instead, use an
alias in your Apple menu and it will work just fine. I use it every day.

Four stars in Macworld. $18 PLUS shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or
$14 Australia, Asia

For Immediate Release

New Publishing Firm to Start Macintosh Weekly

FALLBROOK, Calif. _ Digital Cactus, a start-up publishing firm, is
announcing today that it will be entering the market with a weekly news
publication dedicated to covering the Mac OS platform. The new
publication, entitled The Mac Report, will be rolled out on June 24.

"The Macintosh market needs a weekly publication that is dedicated to
providing hard Mac news," said The Mac Report publisher and editor Lucas
Roebuck. "Unfortunately, MacWeek is moving away from that space. We hope
to pick up the slack."

The 32-page publication will be rolled out in two phases. In the first
phase, readers will be invited to subscribe for free to the publication,
which will initially be available via a weekly fax, e-mail, HTML or
downloadable PDF file. The second phase, which Digital Cactus hopes to
unroll in six to eight months, is creating a print version of the
newsweekly to mail to subscribers. Once again, the Mac Report is free to
its subscribers.

Those who wish to subscribe to the newsweekly can do so in several ways.
The easiest is to point their browser to <http://www.macreport.com>,
where readers can subscribe on-line. Users can also email their requests
to <subscribe@macreport.com>. Readers need to specify how they want to
receive The Mac Report: fax or email. Readers who do not have access to
the Internet can call 760-723-5207 to subscribe.

Press releases, news tips and story ideas should be sent to
<news@macreport.com>. Those wishing to advertise in the Mac Report should
call 760-723-5207 or email <erick@macreport.com>.

Based in sunny, southern California, Digital Cactus, a media
communications company, is dedicated to creating new and innovative ways
of publishing information and entertainment. Its product line up includes
The Mac Report, the Mac OS newsweekly, and will be launching
<personally.com>, the digital magazine of personal culture and other
focus publications in the next 6 months.

Georgetown MedNetwork on the World Wide Web

A searchable database of faculty publications, research summaries,
research interests, education and training, Academic and Clinical
appointments, and other curriculum vitae information. Created by the
Office of the Dean of Research and Graduate Education, Georgetown
University Medical Center.

Please visit at URL: <http://mednet.odr.georgetown.edu/>

This *very* cost-effective database and web-interface is now available
for licensing at your institution.

Many universities are struggling with ways to keep non-confidential
faculty information current and standardized on the web. Our method has
proven successful at Georgetown University, the University of Maryland at
Baltimore, and (soon to be deployed) at the University of Pittsburgh.

If interested, please contact me by reply e-mail for complete pricing,
specifications, and purchase order information.

Thank you

Steve

BTW, Georgetown MedNetwork is made on a Mac and requires a Mac server for
licensing. There is a Windows client and a Windows Web interface but only
the Mac versions of this cross-platform database are licensable.
