I love the cover. One of the best I've ever seen. Bold, exciting, fresh!

All the news and views were interesting, as usual.

I know it was the reason for the cover, but the top 10 seemed like magazine
filler... although I do agree that Directory Opus Magellan deserved it's
rightful place at the top.

The Bluffers guide didn't get my gonads racing, but it's great to have in
there for the confused and clear things up a bit.

Digital Almanac. Not my cup of tea.

Or Sbase 4.

Nextgen Watch: very very interesting.

Active Shareware: always something interesting there.

Merlancia and AmigaZone really need to have someone re-design their ads btw.

Active Media: as with the shareware section, always worth a browse.

os3.9 Masterclass: Fantastic. Really getting to some interesting stuff now
to get the most out of your miggy :) I'll be sending my beast of a wb pic
soon btw.
Maybe sometime we can have an article on the ultimate Amiga's e.g. If you
have a base 1200, here's the best software to get to have the best beast,
and the same for Amiga's with gfx cards.

Great pdf cd advertisement. I'll have one of those myself soon.

I'm afraid I'm technically pre-historic, so any programming stuff like
Active Arexx always makes my mind go blank. Neil constantly impresses me
with his knowledge of just about anything... including anti-gravity
propulsion (probably). I will be trying to get my head around it though
just so I can have a little proggie to scale and/or rotate jpeg's
automatically once I direct it to the folder involved.

The Coming Attractions bit was a very welcome article. We'll see how many
actually make it.

I'd really like to know if I was too hard on Land of Genesis, or if I was
right that it was too hard one me :)

Interactive is always great, as well as Ask The Guru.

Cascading Style Sheets is great. Neil has a great way of writing and being
understood (except by me with other programming stuff of course, 'cos I'm a
dunce)

I was dissapointed with the Debriefing (Zool??), but if there was no-one
else available.... and I'm hoping to see that Foot & Mouth game sometime :)
