Netcom Announces Complete Internet Access Solution for
Amiga Users in the UK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NETCOM the world's largest independent Internet Service Provider (ISP), is
launching NETCOMplete for Amiga, a complete Internet software and service
package for Amiga users. NETCOMplete for Amiga will be available from 1
November 1996.
NETCOMplete for Amiga brings together all the essential Internet applications
such as WWW, FTP, IRC, E-mail and news, telnet and finger, in one simple
installation package. The software suite is based on the freely distributable
version 4.0 AmiTCP demo and will be available free through the NETCOM customer
service hotline (01344 395600) and through authorised Amiga distributor,
Eyetech. Existing Amiga Internet users who wish to upgrade will be able to use
FTP to download NETCOMplete immediately from NETCOM's FTP server. Amiga
customers will be charged the same monthly tariff as existing NETCOM customers:
GBP 5.95 (inc VAT) for the first month and GBP 14.95 (inc VAT) per month
thereafter, for unlimited Internet access.
The NETCOMplete for Amiga package will include full user documentation. Amiga
customers will also be able to seek help from NETCOM's 24-hour, 7-days-a-week,
technical support hotline (01344 395555), and from dedicated NETCOM Amiga
newsgroups.

one of the few ISPs to recognise this. With NETCOMplete for Amiga we will offer
a comprehensive, easy-to-install software package, plus the top level, award-
winning service already on offer to our existing PC customers: round-the-clock
customer support, fast, problem-free access and competitive pricing".
