EDITORIAL

Dear Readers, Are you surprised at what it is? No, this is not an advertisement but the introduction to the fifth edition of the ENTER NEWS. Pretty exhausting to read this mini-font isn't it? On the following pages, we have taken a larger font, only in your interest. Readers of the last issue mocked the small print. After some time reading the article would tire the eyes. For us, this occasion was enough. Some will now think again, "That's much too large, the sides did indeed just stalling" No, no, not true at all about this, because the contents would have remained even in smaller letters the same, just hold on a few pages. We are very happy with this size and not yet. It would be such a size that is between the past and the present edition. Not that you are now at the thought that our readers have all the bad eye .... For readers with a good magnifying glass or corresponding thereto vision, we offer these ENTER NEWS Also in miniature, but it will cost double, Classify ......... - that would take too long to explain here.

In our readers-corner Werner Lindner and Norbert Mitterberger have answered some questions of our readers. In this issue we have for the first time the software section test: In heart and kidney were tested: 1st the game "Out of This World", 2nd The "Turbo Graphics Package" and 3rd ZZZIP the Basic Compiler. In our column hardware test Schillinger Martin exclusively for us the 30Mbyte hard drive tested in conjunction with the Enterprise. A really great addition for your Enterprise. And since we're on the same extension nor a hint of amateur tinkerers with a E64: Our Do-lt-Yourself section gives precise instructions Werner Lindner for memory expansion of the "little ones" from Enterprise.

If you like working with the Word Processor you'll be grateful for the tips and perhaps will be surprised at the unimagined possibilities of the Enterprise word processing. To be humane to the troubled two-finger typer readers, this time we have very, very short reader listings. And here is my question directly: "Are you musical?" If so, "Can you play the piano?" If yes, then you can at this point directly hit the table of contents, if not then go on reading because with the Enterprise, you can at least simulate playing the piano. The small keyboard will give you further help and at the end you might even play a little tune. In any case, have a great time with this issue, mainly because of the varied content and nice large font.

Yours, Claudius Esser

INTERNAL + NEWS

As we have announced in the last issue, here's now a report on the production of the newspaper.

The Birth of the Newspaper Enterprise

It all started in June 1987. Mr. Frölje and I worked together at that time for the Quelle company in the computer department selling all types of computers - among others the Enterprise, since January 1987.

As a suggestion from the company Enterprise Mr. Frölje asked me in March if I was interested with him a newspaper for making these forward-looking computer. Addresses of interested readers, he would have nügend GE. For me it all sounded very interesting, especially since I'm studying journalism and I have seen for this newspaper a perspective. Mr. Frölje also unveiled a circulation increase of ini-lichen 100 copies to 300 - 500 copies within a year in prospect. In this case, the newspaper would carry out and may even jump one time or another, a fee for the writers. In June, July of last year, it gets serious.

THE FIRST ISSUE

The first edition was produced entirely with the "Wordstar" and a type-writing program. All the newspaper was printed with the Enterprise printer. With its 62 pages in length it has been the thickest issue. Being optimistic, in a press we printed 100 copies of this issue. We were satisfied with the result (the look of the paper) but all beginnings are hard and we knew that we wanted to make each edition better newspapers.

At that time we were in a threesome. Schülter Horst, Jurgen Frölje and myself. Programs were given by the Düsi software and Werner Lindner, who even presented his DIY ideas.

THE SECOND EDITION

It was almost a panic-copy, the second edition. Again, everything was done with WordStar. This time, however, with a daisy wheel printer the UNI-Munich. Mr. Schülter employees from the "source" house in the sun road had not been heard from, although he initially wanted to test the games and wanted to write instructions for playing the games, which included a not such. Thus Mr. Frölje and I the whole issue alone for the first time assembled and glued. We have also tried the new layout. Nevertheless, enough has gone wrong. First, there were far too thin paper envelopes, and we also had the footer of each odd-numbered pages upside down stuck.

Pages 224-255

THE THIRD EDITION

For this edition, we stood for the first time a professional desk-top publishing system. The company was engaged in the Lord Fröhle also had to fit the laser printer, so that this newspaper would have to be perfect. With the release date, we did ourselves, but again difficult. Since only Mr. Frölje familiar with the new program was hung from the date of his occupational exposure. And that was just at that time very high. It became apparent already, what a short time later confirmed, Mr. Frölje was not ready and probably no longer able to care for the newspaper and the club. When handing over the papers and the associated financial part, there were some problems. Thus, some readers have not paid their newspaper, never even received a bill and nothing at all wrong. The newspaper My PC had to be sold so as not to stand there with empty pockets. So we have just had enough money to fund the next three issues can.

THE FOURTH EDITION

It is clearly our showpiece. ENTER NEWS should always look. This edition was published by Mr. Lindner and myself. Fortunately, to date diesesm already made some readers with the content of the magazine with, so that there was also the first article of a few ENTERPRISE fans with it. The release date is delayed beyond the first quarter and yearly magazine was finished. Fact that it is very difficult to make such a hefty dose of information in less time. In addition, the font was so small that fit on one side nearly aktzeptable number of much more text. Six issues a year, we announced eight months earlier, possibly as many as eight for the same price if it goes well. Unfortunately we have not experienced a boom in demand, so that it remained in the first weeks of the subscribers. These are some thirty-interested enterprise to this day. At approximately 6000 units sold to a few. Too few enthusiasts and hobbyists are among them, who have realized what this little device is still everything. Also, we certainly have not done everything that could have boosted the sales of newspapers, but at least it would have required more time and commitment, or even a permanent editor. On both, there are unfortunately lacking.

THE FIFTH ISSUE

This issue is hopefully another step has been more successful than the last. Alone in the layout for all the texts I've been sitting for over a week, no less than eight hours a day five days a week. The whole time I've worked with a quick no-name IBM-compatible 286 PC AT. Were printed the pages, as well as in the last issue with the Epson FX-100, a 9-pin printers. As software we have used WordStar and Ventura Publisher. Thus, this issue another good suc-related issue, I think, both in terms of content and form. View of the sixth edition

This will temporarily be the last edition of the ENTER NEWS. We have thus fulfilled the conditions of our advertisers, who had ordered a one year subscription of six issues. The conditions under which we have produced the books, although not comparable with those of our starting point but we still have our readers do not want to disappoint and have remained here until the end. We have published six books and paid the verprochenen and hope that all ENTER NEWS supporters were pleased that two-man newspaper with the performance. This issue will be published as soon as possible.

THE FUTURE

Well in the future there will be only on special request every three to four months ENTER NEWS SPECIAL that can be individually and based on delivery of the inter-ested readers with us. We are the "specials" announce each in the club magazine of the ENTERPRISE USER GROUP Lorch. If among our readers and non-members of the EUG to be, then we ask them if they are interested in these SPECIAL NEWS us a postcard a pre-sent.

GDR service

The Enterprise is a machine that now takes a lot of attention in the Eastern block countries, where it also sells very well. In the GDR, but the Enterprise computer was not sold directly but is usually only gets about relatives there. Therefore we have no contact addresses of the local users. But we want to promote as an independent journal of information between the GDR and the users here live users. If your relatives in the other Germany are interested in it, please send us their address. So that our readers will "share" with each other, we can publish the address then free in our classifieds.
