This concerns a NEW NATIONAL COMPUTER MAGAZINE WHICH IS CARRYING ADAM INFO ON A TRIAL BASIS. 
 
IT is upto us the Adam Community to make this a successful trial so that they will continue to carry Adam info.  Please join in the campaign suggested in the following and help spread the word on this.  

     As you all know, The Computer Shopper has stopped carrying the ADAM articles.  BUT................ ..a new computer magazine called the Vulcan's Computer Buyer's Guide has published its first issue and contains Faye Deere's ADAMCON 01 article .  Further Vulcan's Computer Buyer's Guide has agreed to continue to run ADAM articles on a trial basis. If you can't find this new magazine on your newstand shelves, request that it be stocked.  ALSO THEY HAVE A SPECIAL USER GROUP DISCOUNT PRICE IF YOU SUBSCRIBE AT THIS TIME AND INCLUDE THE NAME OF YOUR USER GROUP (the BBS or Newsletter you read this in/on can be used as the User Group name), the PRICE is ONLY $ 8.95 FOR ONE YEAR. 
After reading it, if you would write a letter to the editor asking that the ADAM articles be continued, it may make a difference.
     Address your letter to: 
Computer Buyer's Guide, Doug Kilarski, Editor, P.O. Box 2705, Titusville, FL 32781.  
  COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE 
                       
A new publication (or at least new to me) has reached the market called VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE.  
 
It is NOT just for buying computers but includes accessories, supplies, information and articles.  YES, EVEN ADAM ARTICLES .  
 
This one you can purchase and carry home from the store ALL BY YOURSELF, not like the Computer Shopper which due to its size and weight required a minimum of 2-3 adults to lift and carry.  
If you want 28 choices for an item you will still need Computer Shopper but if a enough choices to satisfy a normal person while allowing you to make an intelligent decision between the several choices given you is sufficent then VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE will fill the bill.  REMEMBER to properly evaluate your 28 choices you probably need an EZ-Evaluation Software Package costing several hundred dollars.  With the reasonable number of choices present in VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE you can actually make a wise choice yourself in your head.  Then you can take the money saved on buying an EZ-Evaluation Software Package and take a long vacation, buy a sterio, buy some accessories for your computer. 
                                                                          
IS VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE ADAM FRIENDLY, YOU BET !!!  It has an Adam News Column by Faye Deere and it offers a DISCOUNTED SUBSCRIPTION RATE TO MEMBERS OF USER GROUPS.  
 
While Computer Shopper's price is as heavy as the actual publication itself, VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE on its special User Group price is ONLY $ 8.95 for 12 monthly issues.  YOU CAN'T BET THAT!! 
 
In VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE I found ads for generic (low priced) disks, ribbons, printers, etc.  All the stuff that could be found in Computer Shopper IF one had the TIME, ENERGY and DEDICATION to search through Computer Shopper for it. 
 
There are the old familar advertisers that we utilitzed in computer shopper are PRESENT in VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE, Panasonic, Computer Direct, Compumart, MEI/MICRO, etc.  The only difference is that you can find them now, esepcially with the easy to use Advertisers Index in back, no hunting through hundreds of pages to find the one ad you are looking far, no more having to go through 3,345.8 ads before you finally find the one you want. 
 
As noted in the CHART VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE is better than computer shopper as a fly swatter, having a good weight and feel, ease of swinging and sufficent kill power, while computer shopper always warns the fly ahead of time as you grunt and groan trying to lift it to swing it. 
 
Other VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE ADVANTAGES include: less risk of hernia, less eye strain and objectively it is softer than computer shopper and therefore preferred for use as toilet paper should the necessity arise. 
 
ALL IN ALL I FOUND VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE TO BE SUPERIOR TO Computer Shopper in almost all respects and only in a few catagories would I consider computer shopper equal to VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE.  Computer Shopper was superior in NO catagory.

  HARD NOSE HARRY'S RECOMMENDATION: A STRONG YES TO VULCAN'S COMPUTER BUYER'S GUIDE and a BIG NO TO Computer Shopper.  
 
ing far, no more having to go t
