March 1995 Edition of Walnut Creek Ada CDROM is Now Available!
Richard Conn, PAL Manager
16 March 1995
I am delighted to announce that a new edition of the Walnut Creek Ada
CDROM is available from Walnut Creek CDROM, 800-786-9907 (see the PAL
FAQ for more information on Walnut Creek CDROM). This CDROM is a
complete copy of the Public Ada Library as of approximately 20 Jan 95.
Walnut Creek CDROM sells it for under $40 list, or you can take out a
subscription for $25/CDROM that sets you up to receive updates to the
Walnut Creek Ada CDROM as they are released.
DISCLAIMER: I helped Walnut Creek CDROM put this product together, but
it is their product. I receive no income whatsoever from its sale.
Supporting CDROM distribution of the PAL or selected parts of it is a
part of the service that I provide as PAL Manager. I also support other
companies, including Coast to Coast Communications, in the production of
their CDROMs (particularly the Ada material on them).
Information about the new March 1995 Edition of the Walnut Creek Ada
CDROM follows.
