This goes out to all USI MouseTalk users,if there are any more left. I've been using Mousetalk since very shortly after I got my GS,early '87. Towards the end of '88,I got the v1.5 upgrade.It was still not bug-free, but still,I found,reasonably feature packed,and very,very enjoyable to use. I still LOVE this program,but clearly there are things to improve there,not only because time passed and new programs set the standart higher,and not only because there are things one realizes had better been changed only after having used the program for a lengthier time,but mainly because YOU CAN'T LEAVE USERS WHO PAID GOOD MONEY WITH A BUGFULL PRODUCT.-this is,of course, unless USI've gone out of business.(Have they????????).we're talking about more than 2 years without even a minimal bug-fix-update.(V 1.50 is dated July 18,1988).I'm not sure how many out there still use MouseTalk,or feel like I do.Anyway,if there's enough response to this posting,I think that working some kind of note to USI could be a good idea. I'd also be glad to hear something from USI people on the net,there used to be some back 2-3 years ago. All this applys if USI is still *8-) in bisiness.Otherwise,*8-(...too bad!!!!.

You might want to direct your notes to the attention of Robert Williamson, who is the President of USI. I spoke with him about 2 months ago, and he said USI was still in business.. -- bsherman@mthvax.cs.miami.edu | bsherman@pro-exchange | MCI MAIL:BSHERMAN
