\f0\fs22 \cf0 Well nobody else has started this so I thought that I would give it a try. Don't expect it to be as good as Fred's though (even though I stole some of his formatting).\
\
If I miss anything or make a mistake leave a post in this thread and I'll fix it.\
\
This version of the Prop Magazine is now finished (unless I\'92ve forgotten something or made a mistake :-) ). Who\'92s going to do the job for next month? I\'92ve attached the text file that I used to make it easier for you.\

\b\fs26 \cf2 ramblings by the editor,
\b0 \cf0 \
\pard\pardeftab720\ql\qnatural

\fs22 \cf0 .\
Well, this is the 3rd edition of Prop Magazine. It won\'92t be that long and it will be time for an anniversary. Speaking of anniversaries, this must be about the 2nd anniversary of the Propeller Chip (If someone knows the exact date can they drop a note in this thread please). So, I have decided to include some of the old posts in this edition. On a more recent note there have been a fair few object releases this month. Check out the new games, I2C slave, nice user interface on the Quad DRO and the others listed below. \
\
The ESC was also this month and some of the people from Parallax were there. Check out their reports below. Also on show was the Coyote-1 and the danceBot.\

\fs22 \cf0 Prop Magazine needs an editor for next month. If you start on the first day of the month it will be a lot easier than starting on the last day! I\'92ll post the file I used for this month when its finished so that you don\'92t have to go through all the formatting again. A hint here is to just keep everything in a formatted text file and then copy the entire thing into the WYSIWYG editor (only works on IE unless you trick it).}
