Architosh
Ships First Issue of ToshLetter™
|
Today Architosh has shipped its first volume of
the new
monthly ToshLetter™ Adobe PDF-based newsletter
for its exclusive subscribers. The newsletter is free.
Shown above in Apple's built-in PDF native Preview application,
the multi-page ToshLetter sports a new look for Architosh
utilizing its longstanding and unique font.
|
|
Clean
Design
A clean design has always been a top priority for Architosh and
this is exemplified in the ToshLetter. Succinct and to the
point, each letter will address key and essential items
affecting stakeholders in the Macintosh CAD and 3D markets.
Generally, each release will focus itself around one or two
topics, often inter-related.

Table of Contents
What follows is the table of contents for the first issue:
- Introduction to ToshLetter
- Graphisoft and the Letter - E - in AEC
- Perspective: Developers Talk of Intel on Mac
- What to Make of the New Apple-Intel Alliance
- News Analysis
- News Five
- ForumTalk
- Feedback
The three primary feature articles above are unique to the
ToshLetter.
The article on Graphisoft is partly based on our previously
published interview online, yet discusses
items not mentioned in that online piece. The "perspective"
article is a "pre-article" of sorts discussing developer
issues regarding the Intel transition. There will be more
on that topic later on Architosh but the ToshLetter today
begins that critical discussion.
Finally, the editorial on the Apple-Intel Alliance is entirely
exclusive to the ToshLetter and suggest what to make of what
Steve Jobs said about the move and why Apple doesn't care
about other operating systems on future MacTels.
For those who have not yet subscribed, you
can do so now here. If you sign up by November 8th, you will receive this
first issue in addition to future issues. If you miss the
8th deadline you will be provided a link in the December
issue (vol. 2) to download past issues.
