My CTS 1200 baud modem died over the weekend (about 15 minutes after
the 2-year warranty expired) and as a result I've bought a new Amiga
1680 modem. Got it for $135 at the Software Shop.
Packaged within the modem box was an offer for $25 worth of free
connect time (5 hours @1200 baud) to Plink for new subscribers.
Since I already subscribe, I can't use it. But I'd be willing to
mail the offer to anyone who asks. If anyone is interested, I'll
mail it to the first person who replies to this note.
Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with American PeopleLink whatsoever
other than I give them an incredible amount of money every month.
Plug: The PLINK Amiga club now has over 3000 members and 60 megs of
online PD, shareware, and miscellaneous noise. The Amiga forum is the
largest of any of the Plink clubs, and will soon be allocated a larger
message base and more disk storage. The sysops also regularly ARC the
Usenet comp.sys.Amiga postings. In addition to all the above neat
stuff, the following developers are regular attendees/users...
Electronic Arts
Byte-by-Byte
New Horizons Software
Aegis Development
WordPerfect Corporation
The Gemstone Group
Commodore-Amiga present & ex-Amiga gurus (Dave Haynie, RJ Mical, Rob Peck)

OK Scott, it's in the mail...
I threw away my Compuserve deal, since I couldn't in good faith
encourage anyone to spend $12.95/hr to obtain what can be had for
$4.95/hr.
