                     EDITOR'S CORNER

HELLO, PC FANS!
Welcome to another exciting issue of On Disk Monthly. This
issue contains some really exciting programs and other
items. I've copied them all onto my system for regular use,
so I know you will, too! Isn't "Where Am I?" just a fabulous
program?

And how about the addictive fun of Cribbage Companion? Just
between you and me, the computer is a much better cribbage
opponent than, uh, someone I know--who shall remain nameless
in the interest of maintaining a harmonious relationship.

My harmonious spouse loves Auto Tracker and those cool
Windows sounds. And, as soon as September rolls around, I
plan to send my mother a special, personalized birthday
greeting courtesy of "Birthday Card."

How about you?

FUTURE PLANS
Your letters and Report Cards have told us that you were
quite excited by our recent Windows offerings--bitmapped
graphics (wallpaper) and screen saver modules. We're pleased
to announce that beginning immediately we plan to put at
least one Windows item on every issue. And this month, we've
come up with some outrageously "cool" sounds (.WAV files)
that will allow you to customize Windows to match your
personality...or tickle your "funny bone." If you don't own
Windows, don't worry. There will be plenty of DOS programs
on every issue that we're sure you'll enjoy!

We also plan to develop more programs with VGA graphics.
Why? You've demanded it, and we agree that those of you who
have VGA or SVGA graphics capabilities should be able to
fully enjoy the system you've purchased. So, if you've been
thinking of letting your subscription lapse because you've
been unhappy with ODM's lack of Windows programming and EGA
graphics resolution, DON'T! Pick up that phone and renew
now! We plan to make you a very satisfied subscriber.

TECH SUPPORT NOTES
Tech support says that YOU haven't been complaining! Hey,
we're not complaining about that! One thing that we are
trying to keep tabs on is floppy disk failures. Why? We've
recently installed a brand new disk copying system, and we
want to make sure that it's doing a good job. So, if you
should receive a new disk that won't run at all or that
gives you a "sector not found" type of message, return the
disk. Be sure to jot down your system configuration so we
can determine whether or not the problem is hardware
related. We'll send you a new copy of the issue.

REPORT CARDS
PLEASE take time to fill out and return your Report Card for
each issue. If you don't tell us what you think, we won't
know! Remember, we often make decisions based on your report
cards, as well as your letters and on-disk or telephone
surveys.

ON SUMMER
Go on vacation. Keep cool. Have fun in the sun. Wear plenty
of sun screen. And always remember ODM is fun, fun, fun in
the summertime, too!

                                  Catch you next month!
