I have been a Compuserve subscriber for at least three years, and mainly
use it for access to MAUG, the Microneted Apple User Group.
Is it worth it?
Well, I have averaged about 40 dollars per month to that organization
over that period, or about $1400. For this investment I have got first
crack at much of the freeware and some of the beta software. I've gotten
free advise from some people you may have heard of: Andy Hertzfeld and
Dennis Brothers are two people on MAUG regularly. Apple AUTHORIZED posting
of much of their software supplement there. Andy Hertzfeld is planning
on posting the first Beta-Release of his Switch there shortly.
I think it is worth it. BUT $1400 is a lot of money.
