Last Chance to Purchase Wallpaper, Japanese Wallpaper products, Wallpaper Pattern Sets, and CAL. All products work perfectly with System versions 6.07 through and including System 8.1, and offer features not currently available in any other software. This is a liquidation sale that will end on June 15 or as long as stock lasts, whichever comes first. Payment must be by check, money order or international money order. Please include your email address in case of questions.
Exception: If you are ordering from outside the country or very near the end of the sale period, and email me that your order is forthcoming, I will hold your order for you for a reasonable period beyond the ending date.
Yes, there is a break on shipping costs for ordering multiple items. Please use the base shipping rate for the first item. For inside US add $.75 (seventy five cents) for each additional item. For orders from outside the US, add $1 (one dollar) for each additional item.
There is no overlap in patterns among the different items listed, (except between Wallpaper and Wallpaper Light & Dark).
We do have copies of Japanese versions of Wallpaper, Wallpaper Zebra Edition, and Wallpaper Light & Dark. These items have not been tested with current Japanese System software but were KanjiTalk compatible and very well reviewed in Japan. If you want the Japanese version of any of the above products, I'll be happy to make them available for the same price as the US versions. Of course, all the pattern sets will work with the Japanese versions as well as the US versions of Wallpaper.
1. Wallpaper. The Wallpaper application (Control Panel) allows you to automatically change your desktop pattern every set period of time, create and edit desktop patterns in a built-in paint program uniquely written to work with patterns that repeat. The program includes several hundred excellent pattern sets which can be installed on your desktop and edited. This is a prize-winning program which changed the face of the Macintosh, received hundreds of rave reviews all over the world, was endorsed by Steve Wozniak, and yes, it still works perfectly! $15 PLUS shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or $14 Australia, Asia.
2. Wallpaper Zebra Edition. Includes all of #1, but the enclosed patterns are all Black & White patterns, most not included elsewhere. $15 PLUS shipping of either $6 US , $10 Europe or $14 Australia, Asia

It includes all the items added to Wallpaper Light & Dark: additional patterns, screen saver, new version of Wallpaper. $9 PLUS shipping of either $5 US, $9 Europe or $13 Australia, Asia
5. CAL, a fully customizable calculator that speaks your input and takes
voice input and has numerous features: percent, memory, a tape that is printable and copyable, negate function, clear and many others. It can be sized and colored, and data can be exported. It also includes a calendar, appointment keeper (with reminders), and a formula editor. Don't use the
INIT (you don't need it and it does have problems) -- instead, use an alias in your Apple menu and it will work just fine. I use it every day.

For Immediate Release
New Publishing Firm to Start Macintosh Weekly
FALLBROOK, Calif. _ Digital Cactus, a start-up publishing firm, is announcing today that it will be entering the market with a weekly news publication dedicated to covering the Mac OS platform. The new publication, entitled The Mac Report, will be rolled out on June 24.
"The Macintosh market needs a weekly publication that is dedicated to providing hard Mac news," said The Mac Report publisher and editor Lucas Roebuck. "Unfortunately, MacWeek is moving away from that space. We hope to pick up the slack."
The 32-page publication will be rolled out in two phases. In the first phase, readers will be invited to subscribe for free to the publication, which will initially be available via a weekly fax, e-mail, HTML or downloadable PDF file. The second phase, which Digital Cactus hopes to unroll in six to eight months, is creating a print version of the newsweekly to mail to subscribers. Once again, the Mac Report is free to its subscribers.
Those who wish to subscribe to the newsweekly can do so in several ways. The easiest is to point their browser to <http://www.macreport.com>, where readers can subscribe on-line. Users can also email their requests to <subscribe@macreport.com>. Readers need to specify how they want to receive The Mac Report: fax or email. Readers who do not have access to the Internet can call 760-723-5207 to subscribe.
Press releases, news tips and story ideas should be sent to <news@macreport.com>. Those wishing to advertise in the Mac Report should call 760-723-5207 or email <erick@macreport.com>.
Based in sunny, southern California, Digital Cactus, a media communications company, is dedicated to creating new and innovative ways of publishing information and entertainment. Its product line up includes The Mac Report, the Mac OS newsweekly, and will be launching <personally.com>, the digital magazine of personal culture and other focus publications in the next 6 months.

Georgetown MedNetwork on the World Wide Web
A searchable database of faculty publications, research summaries, research interests, education and training, Academic and Clinical appointments, and other curriculum vitae information. Created by the Office of the Dean of Research and Graduate Education, Georgetown University Medical Center.
Please visit at URL: <http://mednet.odr.georgetown.edu/>
This *very* cost-effective database and web-interface is now available for licensing at your institution.
Many universities are struggling with ways to keep non-confidential faculty information current and standardized on the web. Our method has proven successful at Georgetown University, the University of Maryland at Baltimore, and (soon to be deployed) at the University of Pittsburgh.
If interested, please contact me by reply e-mail for complete pricing, specifications, and purchase order information.
Thank you

BTW, Georgetown MedNetwork is made on a Mac and requires a Mac server for licensing. There is a Windows client and a Windows Web interface but only the Mac versions of this cross-platform database are licensable.
