Title: 1 on 1 = 3 Integrated. (1 on 1 Computer Solutions Inc.'s 1 on 1 =
3 Integrated 2.0) (Software Review) (one of 15 evaluations of
relational data base management systems in '15 relational
databases: easy access, programming power') (evaluation)
Author: Brown, Bruce.
Journal: PC Magazine May 28 1991 v10 n10 p167(4)
Summary: 1 on 1 Computer Solutions Inc's 1 on 1 = 3 Integrated 2.0 is a
dBASE-like relational data base management system that maintains
dBASE compatibility despite adding some improvements. The list
price of $99 includes Switcher, As-Easy-As, and PC-Write, and
requires 640Kbytes of RAM and DOS 2.0 or later. Although the
package is faster and easier to use than dBASE in terms of
end-user interactive functions, it is slower when it comes to
running actual programs. The program is supported by its author,
Frank Rogers, who runs 1 on 1 Computer Solutions by himself.
Although only limited customer support is available, the package
is inexpensive. 1 on 1 = 3 is primarily designed for single
end-users who want dBASE compatibility, although it also functions
as an introduction to programming relational databases.

Title: Clip art. (Software Review) (overview of 18 evaluations of
clip-art libraries)(includes related article on Editor's Choices)
(evaluation)
Author: Simone, Luisa.
Journal: PC Magazine May 14 1991 v10 n9 p203(28)
Summary: Eighteen clip-art libraries for IBM-compatible microcomputers are
reviewed. All offer images in editable vector formats such as
.CGM or .EPS. Vector images, unlike bitmapped images in .PCX or
.TIFF format, can be resized, rotated or skewed without reducing
image quality. Most of the libraries come in Encapsulated
PostScript (EPS) format; a few business-oriented packages use CGM,
which is supported by virtually every business graphics program,
while others are sold as adjuncts to their vendors' drawing
packages and use proprietary formats. The EPS format offers
high-level object descriptors that make possible the easy and
economical description of complex images, but is not always
editable; editable EPS files use a subset of PostScript which
applications can interpret. CGM is more widely supported, but
different 'flavors' created by different applications can cause
incompatibilities. Color conflicts also arise in some CGM files.
Several vendors offer 'subscription' plans that let users buy clip
art on a monthly basis. Artright Software's ArtRight Image
Portfolios, Computer Support Corp's Arts and Letters and 3G
Graphics Inc's Images with Impact are the editors' choices.
