As many of you know by now, Portal shut down all of its Internet services
permanently on Oct. 8th, 1996. (This is detailed on my web site at
http://www.amigazone.com/).

I moved the AmigaZone from Portal, where it lived for five years, to CalWeb
and we are now open, up and running with a new interface which has a LOT
more features than Portal ever had.

Here's what $19.95/month gets you:

   * Unlimited access to the AmigaZone. 24 hours every day. Log in as much
     as you want and get everything we have. No extra-cost areas ever.
   * Over 25,000 files are now online with more coming. We have five gig of
     disk and a seven-disc CD ROM changer online.
   * All the AmigaZone message bases have been recreated.
   * Amiga mailing lists will soon feed into their own message bases so you
     don't have to clutter your email with them.
   * We feed in all the Amiga Usenet newsgroups and have them set to a 30
     day expire. So there are always thousands of Amiga postings online at
     any given time.
   * You can read stuff interactively online or you can download mail and
     news and postings in ".qwk" packets and read them off line using
     lovely software such as "Q-Blue" and others.
   * You can telnet or rlogin to "amigazone.com" from anywhere.
   * You get a new email address of "yourname@amigazone.com". Did you ever
     want an address with the word "Amiga" in it? Well now you can have
     one.
   * You can not only download from our interface directly but paying users
     can also download from our private FTP site using the FTP tools of
     your choice.
   * We have live, nightly interactive chats every night of the week. On
     Sundays we give away Amiga prizes. Not cheap junk either. I've given
     out prizes for the past TWO HUNDRED Sundays in a row to hundreds of
     folks. (Prizes are donated by various Amiga- supporting companies..
     see details on the web site). Someone is guaranteed to win a prize
     every Sunday. CD ROMs. Kewl Amiga software packages. (You must be
     present online to win...your chances of winning are determined by how
     many people are in chat with you and the outcome of a random chance
     dice roll command).
   * Your $19.95/month also gets you an unlimited use CalWeb UNIX shell
     account with all the usual shell tools (email, news, ftp, telnet,
     you-name-it) and 10 meg of free storage. You can host your own Web
     site there. CalWeb's Web server is fast. Try www.amigazone.com and
     judge for yourself.
   * Sign up is FREE. You pay nothing to join. You can bill to major credit
     cards or be invoiced in the mail monthly. Same price.

If you want into the Zone, just phone 1-800-509-9322 or 1-916-641-9320 and
say "AmigaZone sent me."

CalWeb has live human beings in their office 24 hours a day, seven days a
week. NO voicemail-from-hell system to navigate. Your account will be open
and accessible to you within 24 hours of joining.

Again, there is a ton of additional info on the AmigaZone web site.

Amiga support has been diminishing everywhere the last few years. Magazines
have vanished. User groups have shut down. Dealers have boarded up. Sysops
on other systems have slacked off or cut back on services.

I am totally dedicated to providing the best possible online Amiga support
anywhere. But it won't work without your participation. Isn't a service
like this worth $19.95 a month?

You be the judge.
