Rating PC Software
==================
As a 'function' of the newly-founded PC Users' Group, we have
currently finished setting up software which is capable of
rating software programs. What happens is that each user acts as a
judge, rating the software package (program) that they bought
in areas which have been predetermined, or have used, and comment
on it. The comments and ratings are then stored, and are
available for retrival in the event that you are interested
in purchasing a particular program.
If you would be interested in joining, please send the following
information to me (via reply message):
[Feel FREE to add space to the coupon as necessary.]

since "RATING PC PROGRAMS" doesn't sound too good.

Ah, yes, one more thing. WE ARE NOT BEING PAID BY ANY COMPANY NOR
ARE THERE ANY PLANS. THESE RATINGS WILL BE USED ONLY TO HELP
OUR MEMBERS IN THEIR PURCHASING PLANS. WE ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH
ANY COMPANY OR ANYTHING AT ALL.
We were set up by a group of PC Users. At this time, all we basically
do is discuss PC programs, and we may help in giving our users information
about new product announcements, or upgrades.
If you have any new products, computers, or upgrade announcements, please
forward me a copy.
Thanks, and happy computing.
