We know that not everyone can participate in our beta-test, and that not everyone who wanted one of our free ten-issue trial subscriptions caught some of the articles they wanted to see, so we're making this issue available to the Macintosh community. It contains stories compiled from 18 feature articles in MDJ, including MacCyclopedia explanatory articles on Background Printing, Extensions, Meta-Content Format, Font Substitution, Aliases and File Kinds; two analysis articles on OpenDoc containing ActiveX and the real story on Apple's K-12 Market Share; four "Press Watch" articles analyzing reporting on Apple's alleged purchase of Be, the Wall Street Journal's claimed "corporate exodus", plus analysis of columns in the San Francisco Examiner and Houston Chronicle. The issue also has several Macintosh Q&A segments on things like hidden rebooting keys, plus three highly opinionated articles detaling "Seven Serious Screw-ups" by Apple, the difficulty of keeping up appearances and a full-blown, in-depth user-accessible technical look at why BeOS can't hold a candle to Mac OS 8 outside of theoretical discussions (a must-read for anyone who thinks such a swap is a good idea). (As it contains about seven weeks worth of articles without news or reviews, this issue is six to eight times larger than a normal daily issue.) This file is in PDF format (Adobe Acrobat) and is fully marked up with bookmarks, articles and Web links for every URL. It has all fonts included for maximum readability, and for those who've previewed MDJ in the past, features a new and much more readable two-column design that fits better on A4 paper.

We know that not everyone could participate in our beta-test, and that not everyone who wanted one of our free ten-issue trial subscriptions caught some of the articles they wanted to see, so we're making this issue available to the Macintosh community. It contains stories compiled from 11 feature articles in MDJ, including MacCyclopedia explanatory articles on the Macintosh's file system (explaining why you always seem to waste so much disk space), followed by in-depth looks at the history of fonts, the QuickDraw imaging system, and how printing *really* works. There's also analysis on Mac OS clone pricing and feared "price wars," and an exclusive look at the oft-reported press stories saying "Macintosh software sales are down" when the reporting agency revises their figures later to indicate sales may be up *more than 50%!* The issue also has several Macintosh Q&A segments on things like font style linking and using PICT files in desktop publishing programs, plus a highly opinionated article on examining the consequences of your decisions before you take actions.

Bottom line: it works. No compatibility problems (so far!), and things run faster. However, video-intensive tasks may not improve since the upgrade did not change video speed at all according to "System Info 3.1" by Norton Utilities. Disk access was slightly faster, and the CPU and FPU functions were 4x and 10x faster. I did not try other benchmark utilities. I am also including comments I got from some other 5xx users who have upgraded.
