Comments
This bit of the 'MUG Guide' is simply where we blow our own trumpets
and list a few bits of praise we've received over the last couple of
years.... If anyone wants to send in any valid criticisms of TI, we
will more than happily print these as well.
- Bob Powell:
- ...it's good to see a dedicated music forum which has
a good sense of humour and at the same time, is able
to offer good advice and interesting articles, unlike
another disk based mag which always seems to be rather
straight-laced about everything...
- Andrew Lingham:
- ...I've been a regular purchaser of all types of PD
and Licenseware since I bought my Amiga four years
ago and I can honestly say that I consider TI to be
one of the best examples of its genre. Packed to
capacity with items which are interesting and
informative and modules which would often be found
on disks of their own simply because of their sheer
quality. TI is a brilliant example of how it
should be done... quality efforts produced by Amiga
loving people who seem to know what they are talking
about.
- Clive Gardner:
- I really enjoyed TI7. The mag seems to get better
with each issue. Is there no stopping it?
- James Crockett:
- I think you've got the style and presentation of TI
as perfect as possible. It's the best looking and
operating diskmag I've seen...
- Peter Kwann:
- Here is mini review of TI - The mods are of a very high
standard and the editorial content in lively. I look
forward to future issues. Keep it up!
- Grant Mearns:
- ...ModSpot is now perfect, I cannot fault it at all.
Coloured text, logical codes for regulars and
newcomers, and a good whack of text for each review.
The Christmas mods on TI4 were excellent, the Memoirs
articles (TI1993) were very entertaining and, it's my
humble opinion, that it is these sorts of articles
that put TI streets ahead of the rest. The "homely"
feel you said you wanted to create is certainly paying
off by making the mag so much more relaxed and
entertaining to read. Originally I wasn't too keen on
this concept at the start, but I much prefer it now.
You have made me see the light of day....
- Matthew Horn:
- ....I only wish you had named that lovely snowman
featured on TI4's boot up picture because my three
year old daughter has made me print it out for her and
stick it on her bedroom wall. Any chance of seeing the
easter bunny on TI6?...
- Joseph Rosenski:
- ...I got hold of every available issue of TI three
days ago. All these disks are real technical
treasures which I can use for study and examples.
I even liked your first volume...
- Michael Richmond:
- I must congratulate you on a superb magazine...
Had I not started to read your diskmag, I would
not have continued producing music. I was getting
a bit disillusioned because I wanted to improve my
music skills and let others listen to my music but
I had no way of doing so. TI has provided just
that - the hope of getting a good review in
Modspot section simply keeps me going...
- Andrew Southgate:
- ....I can't believe how you've managed to improve
TI with every issue. When TI2 came out I thought
"Well, this is how it's gonna be now, it can't get
any better", I was proved wrong with TI3 and I was
simply blown away with TI4. The new menu system
and improved module player helped, but it's the
quality of the mods and articles that make the
magazine. Unlike other diskmags I have read, there
is not ONE "filler" article in TI. Each article
has been given individual attention, nothing is
"shovelware", all the articles are written in an
interesting and entertaining fashion and presented
well especially considering the boundries of a
text viewing programme. The commands series was
probably the most entertaining tutorial I have
ever read and on the strength of the FOPIII
review, I got it straight away and really had to
agree with every comment. ModSpot just improves
every issue and as soon as TI gets the attention
it deserves from the computer press, it will be
un-touchable...
and finally...

- If you're into OctaMED in a big way, there's plenty in
TI to keep you happy.
