A friend of mine, Dick Barnes in Hatteras NC is considering starting a newsletter aimed at the AMIGA. For the past 3 years, he has successfully published an extremely informative newsletter for the Commodore SuperPET and has both the resources and editorial background to put together a good newsletter. We are looking for suggestions what people would like to see in such an effort and what level of people would most benefit from it. Note that as a newsletter it is *NOT* intended as competition for magazines such as AmigaWORLD (ugh!) or Amazing Computing, but to serve as a reference guide or index of tips and useful information. Specifically, questions we are looking to get answered are: 1) Who would benefit most from this form of information? (Beginners, Usergroups, Casual Users, Developers, ...) 2) What type of information would be most desired? (Hardware information, System routine indexes, Programming tips, bug reports, ...) 3) What would be a reasonable price for how much information and how often? 4) What type of features would be most desirable? (Q&A column, user forums, reference cards, index of available public domain software and where to get it, index of user groups, ...) Please mail responses to me (John Toebes) or Dick at: Usenet: ..!mcnc!ncsu!jcz USnail: Dick Barnes P.O. Box 411 Hatteras NC 27943 Standard Disclaimers: My AMIGA wrote the above without my knowledge.
