WORTH magazine, Jun 96 issue, pp 74-82. You've probably seen my other post about this. BTW, author Willis did not choose GeoWorks as his next Microsoft choice, although it did meet the criteria he was applying. He analyzed five companies altogether. His final choice for the "next Microsoft" is Isis Pharmaceuticals. More details in the article, of course. TTFN --CHUCK-- ...

My husband also hates it...says I spend more time on my rig than with him. Know what, he's right. :) Samething goes on here...for my birthday, Christmas, Mother's Day etc. the kids and hubby look at my wish list and pick something to buy me. Even my best friend got in on it. Strange how much I changed. I use to want clothes, jewelry, and such...now everyone is tired of hearing about the things I want for my computer. Don't know if you remember me...I wrote you in April for your "fonts" on disks. Then I waited for my Easter gift ($$$$), and ordered the diskettes. At that time you were in the process of having them put on CD's, and I thought I was out. I was so broken up about this, but then you wrote me telling me that you would still honor my request. I decided to wait for them to come out on the CD's. Now the money is burning a hole in my pocket. Are they ready to be sold yet? Can I put in my order? Thanks Terri for writing, and lots of luck with the CD's. If you ever come up with some other ideas for Geos, please let me in on it. ...

I thought that I had gotten the errors corrected. If you have Internet access, you can send me email at cmsallek@dinfsvs.com or cmsallek@aol.com. I can also be reached as fidogeomod@aol.com, but I don't use that screen- name often so it's best not used (but if someone sees me online or a reference to that username, it IS me). I MAY have my own Internet service in the next few months (still deciding). If so, I will post the particulars here. Do you have an Internet add- ress? If so, let me know and we can take care of some of this that way. Or else are you tied to a Fidonet-Internet gateway? Once again, sorry for the headaches. I thought that I had corrected your entry and merely posted the most recent list that I found. Perhaps there was a mixup when Rick turned the stuff over to me. I MAY have overwritten MY current list with a list from RICK, which may not have been MY current list. I AM trying to get the list up-to-date again. I hope this listing will be satisfactory. It sure would be nice if ALL SysOps would update their listing.
