    In the Diskovery column of Big Blue Disk #33 I asked you to let me know 
 what you thought about Big Blue Disk becoming two products.  One, geared for 
 the home user, would be filled with games, graphics, utilities, and personal 
 productivity software.  The other would be aimed at the small business owner 
 looking for the tools necessary to run today's automated office.  I want to 
 thank everyone that responded.  We listened to what you had to say and are 
 happy to announce the creation of a whole new product for PC users . . . 
 
                              ^1PC BusinessDisk.^0 

    PC BusinessDisk comes packed with software solutions to common business 
 problems.  Every two months, you will receive two 5 1/4" disks filled with 
 sophisticated business programs designed to make your business or home office 
 more productive and profitable.  The first issue of PC BusinessDisk will 
 contain:

    FasTax Calculator     - a fast-action federal income tax organizer and 
                            estimator.

    Depreciation Schedule - an easy-to-use depreciation package that calculates
                            and prints a schedule for an unlimited number of
                            assets.

    Break-even Analysis   - a visual "what if" tool that plots sales volume 
                            against both fixed and variable expenses.

    As you can see, this is serious software for the serious business user.  
 So that you can better judge for yourself, we have included FasTax Calculator 
 on this issue of Big Blue Disk.  Try this program out and run the short guided 
 tour to the newest member of the Softdisk family of products.  Once you have, 
 I think you will agree both Big Blue Disk and PC BusinessDisk will provide you 
 with good quality software for use at home . . . and at work!  If you would 
 like to subscribe to PC BusinessDisk, call 800-831-2694 and one of our 
 operators will be happy to take your order.

    With all this talk about PC BusinessDisk, I almost forgot to 
 mention some more good news!  Big Blue Disk is now available in the 5 1/4" 
 1.2-Megabyte format.  That's right, you can receive all Softdisk PC products 
 in either 360K, 720K, or now 1.2 Meg floppy disk formats.  If you are a 
 current subscriber to Big Blue Disk and would like to change formats, call 
 800-831-2694 and one of our operators will be happy to make the adjustment. 

    A few months ago, we asked you for your opinion and you told us.  We 
 listened to your suggestions and have created PC BusinessDisk just for you.  
 We are excited about the future of both Big Blue Disk and PC BusinessDisk.  

     Let us know what you think . . . keep sending those cards and letters.
