A Future We'd Like to See 1.46 - All The News That's Fit to Print
By Twoflower (Copyright 1994)

-- NOTE : This is the raw text version of this REALLY experimental 'story'.
Check etext.archive.umich.edu for the actual ZIPped MSDOS VGA interactive
newspaper. This isn't as much of a story as it is a supplement, y'know,
like the neat freebies Infocom used to stick in their games, like forms
and booklets and little buttons reading DON'T PANIC. Even if you lack
an MSDOS or VGA, all the files are stored in PCX format, which is
relatively readable across platforms.

-- To those of you reading this inside the ZIP, if you experience bugs,
just say 'Oh well' and read this instead. #46 is more or less just an
experiment.

MEMO

Greetings to all Macroware employees. It's about time I used this silly
memo thing for a state of the company update.

First of all, the guys down at debugging need to get off their butts and
hurry up with the Macroware Polygon Sculpter. The boys up at software
need it to finish off several products, and we need the revenue from PS
for funding to other projects. Shake your bacon and get that done.

Second, I've been getting complaints about my manner of talking in these
memos. Listen, gang, I've been running this company for fifteen years,
and I know what works. Dancing around the subject in legalese gets NOTHING
done. I recommend a policy of real speech to all departments on a trial
basis. You should see a 10% increase in productivity.

Third, the Help android from the hardware department is still missing. If
anybody sights Help (a small robot with red hair) please call hardware.

That's all. - William Doors
