From the “Plotter”, Clackamus County Area TSUG,(CCAT/S, 1419 1/2 7th Street, Oregon City, OR 97045.) reports the August TS USER Mini Fair cost them about $500 more than they made. Apparently more said they were interested in attending than actually showed up. RMG reports that Larry Kenny (LARKEN) is coming out with a mini Terminal/BBS program for use with his disc system, cost about $19.95 plus S&H. Also a sequential filing disc, is in the works. Stan Lemke’s Pixel Print Pro is ungoing testing for a Larken version. RMG’s BBS is gona be pulled 12-31-88 due to lack of use. Dick Wagner reviewed VU-CALC (Jack Dohany’s revision) and it’s updated for full size printers, save to micros/tape or disc. Makes the use of Vu calc easier, faster, more accessable. Read the article or write to Jack Dohany, 390 Rutherford Ave., Redwood City, CA 94061 for his catalog, a stamp wouldn’t hurt.
