o Netcomm released their new 12345E smartmodem just prior to christmas. This modem sports a top speed of 9600bd, MNP error correction and an RRP of $1499. The AUG is considering the purchase of three for the BBSs.
o Who were the four AUG committee members seen recently sitting in a federal court room? No, they weren't on trial, they were in fact taking an interest in the copyright proceedings. The March Applecations issue will contain a complete rundown of events once the trial is completed.
o Grant Kwai reports that the price of the Automatic Ice peripheral that makes your Epson compatible printer emulate an Imagewriter (mentioned in Grant's article in the December issue) has risen from $99 to $130. Grant approached Automatic Ice Co and secured a 10% discount for AUG members. When ordering, say you are a member and quote your membership number.

o There is a new freeware host bulletin board software package available which has been written by three fellow club members. The package is called Eclipse and was written to give the utmost power and control to the sysop. If you would like more information and/or a beta version then write to PO Box 65 Wahroonga, NSW 2076. Alternatively, the latest released bug tested beta version will be available from the Apple // BBS.
o Apologies are extended to Techflow for the dropping of the prices for the LightningScan GS from Richard Bennett's review in the October issue. The cause was Ron's System crash that month. LightningScan GS $575 + tax RRP. Upgrade to LightningScan GS from Thunderscan $447.77 RRP.
