Internet

As of February 1, 1995, we will be experimenting with an Internet mail list for MacSense. If you'd like to receive MacSense via an Internet address and provide us feedback as to the reliabilty of our Internet distribution, please send us an e-mail message titled "Sign me up for Internet!", indicating your name and address, etc. (as requested above) to MacSense1@aol.com. Please indicate what version of MacSense you'd like: full color or black & white. 

 
In the December 1994/January 1995 issue of MacSense, we erroneously indicated (in our review of the Color StyleWriter 2400) that the Epson StylusColor utilized the same Canon engine as both the Canon BJC-4000 and the Color StyleWriter 2400. In actuality, the Epson StylusColor utilizes a propreitary engine. To squeeze 720 dpi resolution out of the StylusColor, Epson refined the the ink. Printing at the 720dpi resolution requires special paper to prevent ink bleeding.

 
MacSense accepts well-written contributions for publication. Please understand that MacSense currently operates on a volunteer basis. As such, there is no payment for contributions, other than a tiny slice of fame.

                  MacSense is free, but it does cost us time and energy to produce.
