|'   Amy  PD  and  Shareware Review will 'hopefully become a useful resource for 'those  searching  for  software within 'the  public  domain.    I intend it to 'remain  purely  a  magazine of reviews &and  comment about the Amiga PD world.'I  will  not  be including software on 'the  magazine disk and don't intend to 'include  advertisements  in  it in the 
foreseeable future.'   The  magazine  is  produced  almost 'entirely  by  myself  except  for  the 'music  which  I will be taking from PD 'music  disks  until I find the time to 'make  some  myself - assuming I'm able 'to  that  is.    This  is  in  part an 'experiment  in  seeing  how  much  one 'person can do with good software and a 
great computer.
'   The  following  is  a  list  of the 'hardware  and  software I have used to &produce  this  issue of Amy PD Review.'I'm  sure I've missed some but even so 'I  was  still  pretty impressed when I 
worked it out.
