      On the subject of magazines another good one to read is Amigo Times. It is
  a Canadian mag that is DESIGNED on Amigas and final output is done on Lintronics machines. They use Prof. Page and USE the color separation features.
  
     They have great content (if they would remove the BASIC column) :-). They
 have columns on DTP, programming, and a novel one on women in computing.
  The main drawback is that you have to buy the disk. And Canadian subscriptions
 that way are EXPENSIVE. But often the disk has gems. In Nov they had the TASS
 application system which if combined with ARexx is GREAT. They have developed
 directory tools, color requesters boolean, string gadgets etc... Can do some 
 incredible things with files and system monitoring. 

    Anyway if you get a chance pickup a copy and read it you would be pleasantly
 suprised at what our neighbors to the North are doing.
