Does anybody know where I can get a 386 assembler/disassembler that will

No, to vote knowing full well nothing will change anyway is to bury
your head in the sand ... it is pretending that things will change as
a result of your vote.

That's the problem.

The founder fathers have not exactly been in vogue in this country for
a number of years now. Anyone who tries to act like a patriot is
usually referred to as a 'single-issue' candidate, or a complete nut.
Let a bunch of patriots suggest the idea of a consitutional convention
to arrange things a little differently than they are now and all the
Demopublicans and Republicrats complain about a 'runaway convention'.
They talk about how sacred our constitution is and how we must not
allow people to just amend it every time they please. Somehow they
forget it has already been amended a couple dozen times in the past
two hundred years ... what makes any of the first ten amendments
particularly sacred as far as changing them is concerned?  We added an
amendment called 'prohibition' then re-amended things and cancelled it
a decade later.

Everyone could vote for Perot; it would not matter. You don't really
think the politicians currently in power would really allow him to
take office do you?  I know here in Chicago, Illinois independent
candidates or anyone who makes the regulars feel threatened never gets
into office. It is not a question of votes cast, but rather, dirty
tricks they play.  At the federal level the same thing applies. How
come after all these years, there has never once been an independent
candidate win the election ... not once ... ?

I've never seen a business that failed because of a lack of capital.
I've seen a few business owners get tired and give up because the
business was growing too slowly due to lack of capital, I've seen
people fail to start a business because they couldn't get enough
capital to reach their comfort level, and I've seen businesses
fail because errors or bad luck (usually both working together) 
caused the demand for cash to exceed the supply.  But I have not
seen a business fail "for mainly lack of capitalization".

Dear Sirs!

Please let me introduce you the Research and Development
Laboratory of Ukrainian-American Joint Venture "Sepros Corp.
Int.". Our company profile is scientific research in production
ultra-dispersion powders of oxides of metals.

One of the latest workings of Laboratory is the high purity,
ultra-dispersion powders of oxides of metals.

We are manufacturing ultra-dispersion powders according to original
technology (Gas Dispersion Synthesis).

Gas Dispersion Synthesis - it's special way of combustion of
suspensions of solid fuel in gas for receiving of target products such
as oxides, nitrids, halkogenids etc. Gas Dispersion Synthesis is:

     uniterrupted technological processes;

     absence of ecological problem;

     insignificant usage of electric power;

     compact and completely automation equipment.

The characteristics of powder of oxide of aluminium is:

     1) chemical purity - 99,95%;

     2) size            - 0,09 micron;

     3) shape           - sphere.

Also we are manufacturing ultra-dispersion powders of oxides of
zirconium, iron and synthetic shpinel.

We should like to market for our productions and our technology
or set up Joint Venture. We are looking for partners in this
deal.

If you are interested in the subject, I send you additional
information on your request. If you aren't, but know anybody
may be, please, send me a message. I'll be very grateful for

Hello all:

I have written many computer programs for networks and home users that I 
think could be sold commercially.  My problem is I don't know where to 
begin.  

I don't have the resources to start my own company (and right now I'm not 
interested in finding investors, etc.).  Do most software companies out 
there "buy" programs from outside programmers?  What about the software 
chains like EggHead software, Software Etc., etc.

If anyone knows of a way to "break in" to the market, I'd be VERY interested 
in hearing about it.  Also, I'm more than happy to learn by other's mistakes.

You can e-mail me if you like, and I'll post a summary if there is enough 
interest.

THANKS A LOT.

Hello

Is anybody aware of a book titled "High Tech Start-Up"? I vaguely remember
having seen a review of it in Electronic Engineering Times. A local book
store didn't list a title like that in their CD-ROM catalog. Any reference
to such a title would be appreciated.

I have found a similar book, "High-Tech Ventures", by C. Gordon Bell. It 
focuses on computers, software and peripherals and I find it very interesting

What is the usual arrangement for taking over a dealership?  Can I expect

BTW, I am a driver of FORD vehicles.

	It depends on who it is from.  Understand that 900#'s
	are owned by the long-distance carriers (At&T, MCI, Sprint).
	To use them you must lease one from them.  

	Now their are companies that have 1 or more of these lines
	and then purchase computers that multiplex/demulitplex them
	and split each 900# into extensions, kind of like an audix
	phone line where 1 line has xxxx extensions.  

	I lease 3 lines and will lease 3 more next month for a total
	of 6.  I use one of these companies as my "service bureau".
	They have the multiplexer and the answering machines connected
	to them via this computer.  I call them, non-900#, leave a message,
	and that's it.  The people call the 900# and the service bureau
	sends me a check every month.  The 900# has an extension attached
	to it to access each message.  Each 900# has 1,000 extensions.
	So for the cost of 1 900#, you can lease 1,000 lines ($$$$).

	Now this mailer may have been a solication from the long distance
	carrier for you to become a service bureau (special equipment
	required).  Or from a service bureau wanting to lease you some
	lines for you to lease to someone else.  Or from an independant
	party that has a service bureau line wanting to lease it to you
	so you can lease it to someone else.  Or from an independant
	party that wants to become a service bureau and wants investors
	to help pay the cost for the computer ($20,000 - $100,000 +)

	I have more information on this if you like or contact all 3
	long distance carriers and ask for their information packet on
	900#'s, they all have one.

	Profitability is directly proportional to your advertising.
	You can have the greatest idea but if noone:
	1.  Wants it; or
	2.  Will pay for it; or
	3.  Are not compelled to call  
	then it is useless.  Your advertising must address all of these
	issues.  Good luck.

How's this for snappy answer:

1.	Ross Perot is a computer programmer.  He made his fortune by  
writing programs for the U.S. government.

2.	He owns ~16% of NeXT Computer, Inc.

3.	He owns Perot Data Systems.  I'm not sure but I think he used to  
own EDS - a very large computer consulting company.

4.	He actively encourages the use of technology in society.

...and you can also get to this and others via Compu$erve.  Since the idea is
to find a name with no hits, the cost is minimal.  Unfotunately, this does not 
constitute an exhaustive search.  Your trademark could be being used in 
a company name in your state, etc. and be construed as an infringement -- especially
if it belongs to a competitor.

You can pay for an exhaustive search (~ $500) which takes about a month 
and then apply for protection (~$180), or just submit
the paperwork and get turned down six months later (~$180, I think).

I've decided to go the expensive way because my trademark is part of my company
name.
