THANKS TO OUR SUPPORTERS, CONTRIBUTORS AND CUSTOMERS


 ######################################################################


    The list of supporters and contributors to Megadisc is growing
  steadily and heartfelt thanks go to all you good people whose
  contributions are improving the quality of the magazine each issue.
  Many users, both local and overseas are very surprised at the high
  quality of the information in Megadisc, particularly when compared to
  some of the flashier international magazines, on disk or paper.  Just
  goes to show the locals can do it if they want! Many of these
  knowledgeable people are willing to share what they know if you've got a
  particular problem, so contact us if you want to be put in touch with
  someone who can solve it. Meanwhile, a thousand thanks also to all of
  you who have bought Megadisc (to be precise about 1500 thanks...), thus
  helping us to continue putting out the disk - if people don't buy it, we
  can't continue helping to sort out the information flood for you...

    One way to support Megadisc is to simply let other people know about
  us - give a subscription form to a friend, or hassle your local dealer
  to keep stocked up or get the disk in if he hasn't got it. Or phone us
  and tell us about a new dealer.
