MICHAEL A. BANKS BEGINS "THE INSIDE LINE" COLUMN FOR CONNECT MAGAZINE
ANN ARBOR, Michigan (March 24, 1993) -- Pegasus Press today announced the
addition of Michael A. Banks as an editorial staff columnist for CONNECT
magazine.
With literally thousands of book and magazine article credits to his name,
Michael Banks is recognized as one of the premiere authors in the computer
industry. He has authored such books as DELPHI: The Official Guide (Brady
Books/Simon & Schuster), The Modem Reference (Brady Books/Simon &
Schuster), Understanding FAX and E-mail (Howard W. Sams & Co.), Portable
Communications (Brady Books/Simon & Schuster), and Laptop Power (Brady
Books/Simon & Schuster), as well as co-authored Pournelle's PC
Communications Bible (with Jerry Pournelle, published by Microsoft Press).
In a new column for CONNECT called "The Inside Line," Michael Banks voices
his opinions and shares with readers his unique viewpoint on the online
world of telecomputing. "I'll be more outspoken," says Banks, "and,
depending on the reader, more controversial in this new column than the
majority of computer magazine publications allow."
Along with fast facts, useful news and information, Banks will bring
readers the truth about what's available online, changes in the online
world, why things are as they are online, and what's happening behind the
scenes. "I'm going to shoot from the hip, but with accuracy," Banks said.
Banks promises his column will deliver some fascinating opinions and
extrapolations, all delivered in the style hundreds of thousands of
computer users have enjoyed in his books and other publications.
The first installment of "The Inside Line" will appear in the July/August
issue of CONNECT, which will be available on newsstand and bookstore
shelves in June.
"We feel Michael is an excellent complement to CONNECT's current line-up of
columnists and authors," says Patricia Snyder-Rayl, managing editor for
CONNECT. "Michael's style of writing and ability to explain cutting-edge
technology in easy to understand terms is exactly what we want readers to
find in CONNECT."
CONNECT is a bi-monthly magazine covering the major commercial online
services (such as CompuServe, America Online, GEnie, Delphi and BIX), the
Internet and bulletin board system networks (such as Fidonet and RIME). The
publication is available from newsstands and bookstores everywhere.
