Special Note to Readers

Macs Only! ceased to operate as a daily news Web site as of midnight December 31, 2007. It is no longer possible to meet the rigors of a daily deadline so I had to bite the bullet.

After years of assisting Mac users on CompuServe, I opened the Macs Only! Web site on December 28, 1995, to further help Mac users join and enjoy the exploding Internet community. Initially, Macs Only! was basically a blog in today's terminology.

In July 1997, Macs Only! became a commercial Web site offering daily news, original articles and reviews, partially supported by advertising. Its second "employee" is Dana Baggett who joined Macs Only! as a news reporter and writer. He is the retired Administrator for Maine's Court system responsible for choosing Macs as their computer system. For over 10 years Dana has helped me scour the Internet daily for information presented on the pages of Macs Only! for Mac users.

Several years later, Brian Nakamoto became the third "employee" who provided occasional original content like reports on CompUSA and from Macworld San Francisco. For several years Chris Adamson maintained a column on the Connectix Virtual Game Station when it was very popular.

Finally, many, many readers supplied information and tips for Macs Only! articles over the past decade.

As the publisher and now former editor-in-chief of Macs Only!, I want to thank all who have contributed over the years to what has been mostly a labor of love.

And I thank all of you, the several hundred thousand readers who have viewed Macs Only! each and every month.

As of January 1, 2008, Macs Only! has returned to its roots, my personal blog. It will continue to persist, not as a daily news source but with occasional commentary, articles, reviews, software tests and speed tests like the article below. I will be redesigning Macs Only! with a new look in the near future.

Happy New Year to all!
