<p>Release is posted at <a href="http://www.netprolive.com/" title="http://www.netprolive.com/">http://www.netprolive.com/</a> if you would like your news<br />

<p> * According to a WebWeek survey, 47.3% of web developers<br />
use a Mac to create the majority of their Web content<br />
-- the #1 platform by far.</p>
<p>The Mac has been the leading platform for web sites for a long time. With<br />
Apple's new G3 servers, there's now that much more strength behind Mac<br />
solutions. Web developers and network administrators have cried out for a<br />
strong publication -- and there's a lot of information to cover in this<br />
area.</p>
<p>"There have been a number of publications out there dedicated to the web<br />
developer or Java," said Neil Ticktin, the new publisher of<br />
NetProfessional, and CEO of Xplain Corporation, "but most companies have a<br />
hybrid of web development, intranet, and general network administration<br />
issues that are all interrelated. NetProfessional will focus on the needs<br />
of this type of net administrator/net developer with hard hitting reviews,<br />
analysis, and how-to articles that actually save people time and effort."</p>
<p>"We are pleased to hear that Xplain will now be publishing NetProfessional,<br />
in addition to MacTech," said Clent Richardson, senior director of<br />
Worldwide Developer Relations for Apple Computer. "Our Macintosh developer<br />
community finds these resources valuable, and will appreciate<br />
NetProfessional's technically-oriented articles, tutorials, and in-depth<br />
looks into the issues that can help them even better meet their customer's<br />
needs."</p>
<p>"Xplain's MacTech has been a great source of info for Mac OS developers for<br />
years," said Scott Steward, president of StarNine. "and NetProfessional<br />
very quickly became a valued resource for Mac-centric Webmasters. Given the<br />
overlapping interests of the readers of both, I think it makes perfect<br />
sense for both to be published by Xplain."</p>
<p>"I am very excited to see NetProfessional getting new life," says Jon<br />
Wiederspan, senior consultant, Meridian Partners Limited. "During my two<br />
years working with the staff at MacTech Magazine, I have been consistently<br />
impressed with the quality of their work and the high content value of the<br />
articles being published. I anticipate the same high quality being applied<br />
to NetProfessional, which will answer a dire need for all Macintosh<br />
Internet and network professionals."</p>
<p>All current subscribers to NetProfessional will automatically receive the<br />
new NetProfessional with the same number of copies that they have left on<br />
their previous subscriptions. Subscribers will be contacted via email by<br />
March 13, 1998. Those who don't receive an email should contact the<br />
magazine at <a href="mailto:custservice@netprolive.com" title="mailto:custservice@netprolive.com">mailto:custservice@netprolive.com</a> (because we don't have an<br />
email address on file for them).</p>
<p>The new NetProfessional will be available at Macworld Expo/New York, July<br />
'98. NetProfessional is available for only $19.95 for six issues for U.S.<br />
subscribers -- a savings of 33% off the cover price! (US$44.95<br />
International, US$25.95 Canadian)</p>
