Along with the second issue of the ADAM CONNECTION nl, it
appears that the following letter was included.....or maybe
mailed early Feb and the 2nd newsletter came out late Feb....

Here is the second issue of the ADAM CONNECTION.  We must 
apologize for being one month late with its release.  We'll get 
back on schedule befor the next issue's release in the last
week in March....GUARANTEED!

Several members of the ADAM CONNECTION Software Club have become
worried about our continued support for the ADAM FAMILY COMPUTER
SYSTEM.  We still will continue to publish the ADAM CONNECTION
Software Club and we will also release new programs for the ADAM.
Look for the next issue of ADAM CONNECTION MAGAZINE due out in
about three weeks with the low-down on our ADAM software support
for 1985!

What do we have planned for future issues?  Well, I'm curently
working on an arcade game programmed in SmartLOGO called BUGSPRAY.
We have also received several other programs through our current
ADAM Programming Contest:  SnakeRider - a trail'in tails arcade
game;  Utopian - running your own country;  Blacard's Castle Adv-
enture - a wizard places you within the walls of Blacard's evil
castle where you hope to recover the symbols of life;  and a 
Computer Tutorial.

With all the above software being purchased for future issues, 
we will be forced to raise our current rates for each issue, (the
upcoming postal rate increase will not help our situation either).
We don't know the exact figures yet, however; all members will be
notifed before the next issue.

Deposits will be credited to member's accounts with the release of
the next issue, instead of being credited with the release of the
fourth issue as originally announced.  Also, members that have
purchased disk drives are requested to write on their invoices
that they now want the disk versions when making payments.

Finally, here is a list of the new software that is beginning 
shipment from us here at International Computing.  If you wish to
order any software items, just return the order with your invoice.
Member's personal checks are welcome and will be processed within 
48-72 hours!
