A2Central.com Announcement

[Cindy Adams <adams@primenet.com>]

November 14, 2000--After several weeks of discussion and planning, Eric
Shepherd and Syndicomm have agreed that Eric Shepherd will take over the
operation of Syndicomm, the company that managed the Apple II RoundTables
on GEnie and the A2 and A2Pro forums on Delphi.

There are no plans to alter the staffing for any current Syndicomm forum,
and Dean Esmay and Gary Utter, the previous Syndicomm management, will
continue to be involved in operations for the forseeable future.

Effective immediately, the new Syndicomm, with Mr. Shepherd at the helm,
takes over the day-to-day operations of A2Central.com.  In addition, the
upcoming online services being constructed at A2Central.com will be the
first in what will hopefully be a number of online communities provided by
Syndicomm.

Dean Esmay, former president of Syndicomm, said, "I am terribly excited
about our agreement with Eric Shepherd.  Syndicomm has been languishing
the last couple of years since we had to go back to work full-time, and we
badly need a talented and committed individual to carry forward with the
name.  I know Sheppy's going to do a kick-butt job in taking Syndicomm
into the 21st century."

Eric Shepherd, owner of Syndicomm, added, "With the Syndicomm name and its
fantastic, highly-experienced staff of volunteers, I expect A2Central.com
to develop into the best place for Apple II users to meet online.  I look
forward to working with Syndicomm's existing staff--and with new staff
being brought on board for our new services.  It's an exciting time for
Apple II users."
