        NEW COMPUTER PRODUCTS OVERVIEW

        GUESTS:
        ANDREW SEYBOLD
        Editor, Andrew Seybold's Outlook On Personal Computing
        WAYNE RASH
        Editor, Washington Post Computer Showcase
        ALAN REITER
        Editor, Mobile Data Report

        Over 2000 personal computer makers and software
publishers exhibited their new products this past week at
COMDEX, the country's largest personal computer trade show.
This Saturday's (11/21) edition of _Your Expanding InfoSphere:
CommonSense ComputerTalk_ explores what new products,
solutions and costs will be available to personal computer
users now and in the near future.
        We'll highlight useful innovations, good values and
the likely directions in which these new products may take
us.  We'll also take a skeptical look at some of the hype
surrounding the computer revolution.

LIVE call-ins will be accepted from approx 1530-1550 ET via
show line: 800/231-8255.

        Saturday's NEWS Section will include an update on
the evolution of laptop and notebook computers, their
capability and pricing (MATT TRASK, reporter, BYTE Magazine).
We're also scheduled to hear from PAT SCHUMAN, Immediate
Past-President of the American Library Association, on
legislative initiatives that would give all citizens greater
lowcost access to government information.
        Business plans, or the lack of them, can make a big
difference in the success of a new enterprise.  SARAH
BLANCHARD, President of the San Francisco Bay Area Chapter of
the American Association of Businesswomen, tells us about the
role of business plans and reviews Business Plan Toolkit, a
lowcost software solution.
