With Big Blue Disk #32, we usher in the long hot summer months. Just
another reason to grab a glass of iced tea and curl up with your computer. I
don't know about all of ya'll (you guys for you northerners), but around here
it gets hot. Believe me, I won't be straying too far from my nice cool
office!
This month I thought I might introduce you to the people responsible for
Big Blue Disk. First there is our inspirational leader from the north, ^1Mike
^1Amarello^0. He holds the title of Editor-in-Chief and is responsible for
coordinating the production of all publications at Softdisk. For Big Blue
Disk, he has been helping out by producing spreadsheet templates (the first of
which is contained in this month's issue).
^1George Leritte^0 is the Associate Editor for Big Blue Disk. George has
been working for Softdisk for about 2 1/2 years. As the Associate Editor he
is responsible for pulling the elements of each issue together, but he has
also been one of our most prolific programmers. Brushstrokes, the Print Shop
Utilities, Klondike, and the Label Printer are all examples of George's
programming prowess.
^1Jim Row^0 started out as a programmer for Loadstar, a Commodore
publication produced by Softdisk, but is now an Assistant Editor for Big Blue.
As well as working on various projects for our magazine (you should see one of
his creations next month), he is also responsible for our testing program.
Each issue of Big Blue Disk goes out to various testers across the country.
He helps by coordinating their responses and verifying that all problems are
solved before we publish.
^1John Romero^0 is the newest member of the Big Blue staff. He is an Apple
II and Commodore 64 programmer that finally saw the light! As Assistant
Editor, John will convert some of the great programs that we have published on
Softdisk, our sister publication for the Apple computer, to the IBM PC. His
past experience includes stints at Origin Systems and Inside Out Software
working on conversions of software between the Apple II and Commodore 64
computers.
These are the people I have to cope with each day at work. America should
thank Softdisk for keeping them off the streets! Actually, these guys are all
great individuals to work with. I look forward to coming to work each day
because I know that I work with some of the best!
Til next month . . .
