Correction on IntelliLink Reference
IntelliLink for Windows and IntelliLink/ XLT were reviewed in the article "Transferring Files Between the 95LX and a PC or MAC," page 12-19 of the Mar/Apr 1993 issue. The comparison chart listed JI.EXM, the main program file, as occupying 115K of disk space. It actually takes up 11.5K. IntelliLink prices were also incorrect. IntelliLink/ XLT retails for $69.95 and IntelliLink for Windows for $99.95. We apologize for the mistake.

LoanSTAR 4.0 Upgrade Adds Features
The newest version of LoanSTAR has four ways to amortize loans: Regular schedules, accelerated fixed rate schedules, accelerated ARM schedules, and biweekly mortgage schedules. The compare loans module now places three loan options side-by-side on the same display and the same is true of Fixed vs. ARM. LoanSTAR now pre- qualifies buyers three ways. It prequalifies maximum allowable loan amount when sale price is not known. When the price is known it computes required income and maximum allowable debt and ratio computation. The program now will print to the HP infrared printer.
