Juiced.GS 1999!

GreetinGS!

In about one month, Juiced.GS, the galaxy's premier IIgs-specific printed
publication, will begin its fourth year of service to the Apple II world. Do
not doubt that 1999 will be another great year for the IIgs community, and
for Juiced.GS.

As so many of our subscribers tell us, Juiced.GS just keeps getting better and
better.

How so, you ask?

Judge for yourself. Here are some highlights of the past year:

-- Juiced.GS ... enlisted the able assistance of Apple II experts Bret Victor
and Dave Tribby to teach users more about making music on their IIgses.

-- ... introduced the Apple II community to the work of Louis Cornelio, a San
Diego educator who keeps the IIgs spirit alive in his high school classroom,
and maintains an impressive presence on the World Wide Web.

-- ... attended Kfest '98 and was the fist printed publication to offer a
complete, firsthand report of news and dramatic product unveilings that
occurred there.

-- ... was the first to publish in-depth reviews of new products such as
SuperConvert 4.0, NiftySpell, WebWorks GS, GraphicWriter III 2.1, Disk Access
II, and GSoft BASIC.

-- ... launched a quarterly telecommunications column by Tony Ward to help
users of all levels get more productivity and enjoyment from their online
time and effort.

-- ... introduced an ongoing series of articles/tutorials by Eric Shepherd
about GSoft BASIC that serves the needs of both novice and advanced users.
That series will continue well into 1999.

-- ... in conjunction with Mike Westerfield and the Byte Works, placed a copy
of "GSoft BASIC: The Free Version" into the hands of each and every
subscriber (275 of them), so they could follow along with Shepherd's GSoft
articles and learn more about this cool new programming language.

-- ... played a key role in working with Michael Lutynski to reclassify the
dynamic program Animasia 3-D as shareware and make it available to the IIgs
community.

-- ... continued to offer inexpensive disk compilations for special order from
readers so that everyone can have access to such fabulous new software as
Babelfish, Wolfenstein 3D, GShisen, Animasia 3-D, Fontpimp, Desktop Alarm,
Marinetti and Twilight II 2.0.

Indeed, Juiced.GS had a great year. (See samples of last year's product on
our Web site. The URL is listed below.) And in case you missed it, The Lamp
(the cool digital newsletter centered on Delphi) named our magazine the best
Apple II publication of the year!

We certainly appreciate such recognition, but don't expect us to rest on our
laurels. We're hard at work to make sure 1999 will be just as good, or even
better!

In 1999, you will read more from Eric Shepherd about GSoft BASIC; be wowed by
a stunning hardware discovery from Geoff Weiss; and learn more about the rich
and colorful of history of AppleWorks Classic from Gareth Jones.

What's more, Juiced.GS will strive in 1999 to become the ultimate authority
and news source on the rapidly expanding area of IIgs emulation. Look for an
introductory article from Ryan Suenaga on the meteoric rise of the "Virtual
GS" in the upcoming issue -- Volume 4, Issue 1 -- due out in mid March.

Juiced.GS will, of course, be in Kansas City for Kfest '99. And as new
products and upgrades are released throughout the year, you can count on us
being right there to report the news and present reviews.

Renewals have been coming in since the final issue of 1998 was published, and
we're getting a number of new subscribers as well. But if you haven't yet
renewed, or have been putting off subscribing, now is the time to move ahead
and become part of the Juiced.GS gang.

A 1999 subscription is $14 in the U.S., Canada and Mexico; $20 elsewhere in
the world.

As a special promotion, new 1999 subscribers will get the final issue of 1998
FREE. (That issue contains the first GSoft BASIC tutorial/article and a copy
of GSoft BASIC: The FREE Version.)

To subscribe or renew, send $14 ($20 overseas) in U.S. funds to:
