October 4, 1999, Etna, NH (http://www.atpm.com) - As the northern
hemisphere begins its descent into autumn with the month of October, so
to does the staff of ATPM push on with issue 5.10 of About This
Particular Macintosh.

With the addition of new staff members and more columns for our readers¹
enjoyment, ATPM continues to push the boundaries of e-zine publishing.

Former reader Scott Feldstein joins the staff full time this month with a
double-barrel blast of his column, User Preference. A graduate student in
educational psychology, and full time Mac techie at Marquete University,
Scott brings a unique perspective to that which ATPM has always stood
for: the personal computing experience, with heavy emphasis on the
personal.

Publisher Michael Tsai begins a timely series on Cascading Style Sheets
on the web in his column, Personal Computing Paradigm. This issue marks
the first for ATPM that utilizes this great way for webmasters to
standardize their pages.

Matthew Glidden, of ³Three Macs and a Printer,² continues his 10-part
networking series with his third article, ³Network Software: Sharing
files (and feelings) with others.² Managing Editor Daniel Chvatik brings
you more web sites in this month¹s About This Particular Website, before
turning the reigns over next month to new staffer David Spencer.

David Ozab joins the ATPM crew as the resident sound junkie, and kicks
off his contributions with jams talking about ³Midi and the Mac,² and
³Authorizing Opcode on USB Macs.² Tom Iovino finds a way to scare the
beejezus out of us by giving us a glimpse of national security without
the presence of Macintosh in Apple Cider.

ATPM lands an interview with Chuck Fox, Business Development Officer with
FreeMac.com to discuss how they¹re going to give away all those free
iMacs.

Shareware Editor Bill Lovett evaluates a plethora of Macintosh interface
enhancements in this month¹s roundup, while the staff reviews CD Stomper
Pro 3.2.6, Extension Overload 4.5.1, the iCatch, the iMate ADB-USB
adapter, MacHeadlines Pro 1.8, and an old favorite come anew, ShrinkWrap
3.5.

Hollywood dude Mike Shields talks about independent filmmakers and the
impact the Macintosh has had in that realm recently in this month¹s ³On a
Clear Day...²

There continues to be only two ways to get a rockin¹ ATPM t-shirt. The
first is to simply order one! The second offers more of a challenge, in
that you have to be the first respondent with all the correct answers to
this month¹s Trivia Challenge, courtesy of Ed Goss. Ed promises lots of
fun with The ³ist² List.

Daniel Chvatik continues to be the world-traveling envy of the staff, and
has more desktop pictures for your enjoyment, this month of Montreal. All
this and more, including past and present issues of ATPM at
.
