STart always states if a program falls into one of those categories. Aegis Animator does. > >If you give away stuff that is as cheap as this, the only stuff we'll be >able to get for the ST will be pretty damned expensive! > Cheap?? Have you ever looked at the European ST magazines? They are far superior to STart, and a LOT cheaper. I paid $8 for ST Format, WITH disk and found it much more interesting and useful than the $15 I paid for the Feb. issue of STart.. In fact, at one store I visited in Cleveland, the owner was selling so many European magazines over American mags that he stopped carrying all but Current Notes (which is also good, IMHO). Heck, for the price of two STarts w/disk, I could go out and BUY a real program, not a collection of programs of which 1 might be useful occassionally.. >Bill Silvert, Habitat Ecology Division. _____________________________________________________________________________ Albert Yarusso, Rochester ajy2208@ritvax.bitnet,ajy2208@ultb.isc.rit.edu Institute of Tech. _________________________________________________________ Computer Science /___ / {rutgers, ames}!rochester!ritcv!ajy2208 ______________________/ / ajy2208@ritcv.cs.rit.edu GEnie: A.Yarusso
