SHAREWARE SOLUTIONS II: AN EXCITING APPLE II JOURNEY INTO THE FUTURE

Shareware Solutions II is the highly acclaimed bi-monthly newsletter that
focuses on the magic that is the Apple II computer. Written, edited and
published by Joe Kohn and Dr. Cynthia Field, former Contributing Editors
to inCider/A+ Magazine, Shareware Solutions II has received rave reviews
and strong endorsements from II Alive, The AppleWorks Forum, GS+,
Resource-Central-on-Disk, and by numerous Apple II User Group newsletters
from around the world.

Since its debut in July, 1993, Shareware Solutions II has been read and
well received by Apple II users in all 50 states and in more than 20
foreign countries. Each 20 page issue is filled with a valuable mix of
information and news of the Apple II world, along with hints and tips,
how-to articles, reviews of freeware and shareware, and exclusive money
saving deals that are available, only to newsletter subscribers, on
hardware and commercial software. Additionally, all freeware and
shareware reviewed is available to subscribers at low cost through the
mail.

Each issue of Shareware Solutions II contains information about the Apple
II in an easy to understand format that has been praised by Apple II
novices and "power users" galore. According to a review in the March,
1994 newsletter of the Denver Apple Pi, "I have found his first 4 issues
to be very informative and written in an understandable format. I'm
almost into overload with the information he offers. I encourage any of
you to give Shareware Solutions II a try, as it is really encouraging to
see our favorite computer supported by a knowledgeable person with good
information and programs."

CONTACTS GS

Shareware Solutions II, a general interest bi-monthly newsletter that
celebrates the magic that is the Apple II computer, is pleased to
announce the re-release of Contacts GS and the release of TimeOut
ContactsMover.

Contacts GS is a convenient to use IIGS New Desk Accessory that provides
a Rolodex-style name, address and telephone database program that can be
accessed from within any standard GS/OS desktop application which
displays the Apple Pull Down Menu, including HyperCard IIGS,
AppleWorksGS, the Finder, HyperStudio, and Platinum Paint.

Contacts GS provides the ability to enter information into a name and
address database from within other GS/OS desktop programs, and it also
allows users to quickly locate specific information using a fast Search
function which is able to search all of the major data fields.

Contacts GS, in conjunction with TimeOut Contactsmover, also provides a
flexible and convenient method to enter and retrieve data from AppleWorks
Classic database files. If you ever wanted to have a GS/OS based Super Hi
Res AppleWorks' data entry and retrieval system, Contacts GS and TimeOut
ContactsMover will provide exactly that for you.

Included with Contacts GS are 3 different versions of TimeOut
ContactsMover. Those can be used with either AppleWorks v3.0, 4.x or 5.0.

Contacts GS data can just as easily be imported into any Apple II word
processor, and the Contacts GS data file is also 100% compatible with
Addressed For Success and DB Master.

The Contacts GS New Desk Accessory was written by Burger Bill Heineman.
TimeOut ContactsMover was written by Will Nelken, the co-editor of
TimeOut Central. The Contacts GS program manual was co-written by Joe
Kohn, Publisher of Shareware Solutions II, and Will Nelken.

Contacts GS requires an Apple IIGS that is running System 5.0.2 or later,
although System 6.0 or 6.0.1 is recommended. It has no special memory
requirements; if you have enough RAM to run the Finder, you can use
Contacts GS.

The Retail price of Contacts GS is $35, but as a special introductory
offer, Contacts GS is available for $25 (with $3 s/h for US delivery; $5
s/h elsewhere).

Upgrades from the version of Contacts GS that was previously available
from Simplexity Software are available for only $10 (plus s/h, as above).
Owners of Simplexity's version of Contacts GS must return their original
disk to take advantage of this offer.

Contacts GS is only available from Shareware Solutions II.
