Thank you Gerald. You have answered a question for me at the same time. I
have been to most of the news agencies in our area, CNA, PNA etc and no one
stocks this magazine. This set me to wondering how the Paperweight stores
had copies as I had assumed they came from local bookshops. It was a
question I was going to ask on my next visit to my local store. Time to pay
them another visit....

Just to let you know that PC Basics Issue 52 has finally hit South African
shores. I managed to get the only copy available at the George Paperweight
today. Watch the shelves of your local Paperweight / Kilo-shop for your
copy.

I also noticed that the George Paperweight still has several copies of PC
Basics Issue 47 as well as some oldish British "Practical Family History"
and "Family Tree Magazine". Newest edition is October 2002.

If you are wanting any of these, please contact the owner directly to make
your own purchase / mailing arrangements. His name is Glen and his e-mail
address is:



He does NOT have any additional copies of PC Basics issue 52 at the moment
though he is hoping to get some in with the new consignment next week.

I have purposely left an edited version of Paul's original message below so
that you can see what Issue 52 contains.

Regards,
Gerold.

Hi Listers.

etc.

Quite a few Photo storage, viewers and manipulation programmes, like Acdsee,
