FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Why, in a place so filled with technology and technicians, is it so hard to
find simple help? An easy way to find help for your computer in the Silicon
Hills.


Austin, Texas.  The Silicon Hills.  Technology.  Technicians.  So, why is it
so hard to find information and help with your home computer?  Well, it just
got a little bit easier.  The information superhighway now has a new rest
stop.  It's called Austin Techs, and it's designed for users in, you guessed
it, Austin, TX (notice the similarity?).

Austin Techs provides the novice, as well as experienced, user an
entertaining interface to helpful information.  Austin Techs is also
interactive.  Any of the visiting internauts are encouraged to submit
articles pertaining to their experiences.  Want to find out which of the
books out there are really helpful?  There's a section there devoted just to
that.  Want to keep your children safe on the internet?  Austin Techs will
help you find the tools.  Want to know what to look for when buying a
computer?  Austin Techs will give you some tips.  Want to shop on the
internet?  Austin Techs has a page devoted to buying things ranging from
computer books and magazines, to music.

The site is new and young, with lots of potential.  The best part of all. .
. It's free!  You don't have to pay Austin Techs a dime to get this
information.  Just visit the site, bookmark it, tell all your friends, and
get some information.  It's all being paid for straight out of the pockets
of some local guy.

Austin Techs was designed and set up by Austin Mann (go figure), a local
Austin computer technician who felt that there was not enough easy-access,
useful information for the local user.  Calling Tech Support for a lot of
users could cost $35, just for the call,  when it's possible the information
they were looking for was on the internet.  Mann finds information that may
be of interest to the user, by scouring the internet, and bringing it to one
central location.  He encourages visiting internauts to submit their own
articles and ideas to make the site even better.

What Mann would like to see is a concentration of technical know how
gathered from the many tech-minds in Austin, converging on one site to help
others in need.  For free.

Austin Techs' website can be found at
http://home.att.net/~baytx512/austintechs.htm.  That is until this local guy
can find a more permanent location for it.
