We're looking into offering subscriptions to the printed version
of the San Diego OS/2 Newsletter. At the moment it appears we will be
able to offer a $25 subscription for 12 issues of the newsletter
mailed to addressed in the United States. Overseas postage would be
additional. Each issue would contain at least 20 pages of editorial
content. We will probably start with bimonthly July/August and
September/October issues to get started with the subscription effort.
This will allow us to reduce printing costs by having larger print
runs of each issue as the initial group of subscribers sign up.
We would then move to a monthly issue after the first two issues. As
we've had a track record of putting out one printed newsletter each
month since December 1992, we believe we can keep going at that
rate after we've ramped up to a sufficient number of subscribers to
make printing costs affordable for monthly issues.
The INF and ASCII versions of the newsletter will probably be
continued, but most likely they will trail the printed version by
about one month.
The printed version may also have advertising from OS/2 vendors. We
think that the advertising would be of substantial benefit to OS/2
users as it is yet another way to find out about new OS/2 products.
Moreover, it would help us fund additional pages for more articles and
reviews. As far as advertising rates would go, we do not have
anything determined yet but as our newsletter is targetted towards
OS/2 users, it would be a valuable way for vendors of OS/2 products to
reach an OS/2 audience.
We would like to know what you think of our ideas and whether you'd be
willing to subscribe or advertise in our newsletter. Please send us
email with your feedback to the following addresses:

As we are hoping to make a final decision on this by late June, the
sooner you can give us feedback on whether or not you'd be willing to
subscribe or advertise, the better.
