| A Brief Note |
As you can see by the size of this issue IQLR has had to cut back in the number of pages per issue. Not for the lack of material, but due to the 72% increase in the cost of paper since the turn of the year and the increased rate of postage both here and |

| A Future for the QL |
As you may have heard by now, we (PROGS) are working on a new windowing environment for the QL : ProWesS (which is short for “PROGS Windowing System’). A very early version has been shown to some people at the meeting in Eindhoven, and a slightly more recent version is currently distributed on the LINEdesign |

| A Scot's Visit to Oak Ridge |
After seeing details of the proposed 3rd North American QL Show in the March/April edition of IQLR, I started to make arrangements immediately; any delay would have ensured that some insuperable problem would arise or that time would slip by until it became too late to get organised. |

| CD_PLAYER_BAS |
I was interested to read the discussion of tape backup and CD player control in volume 5 issue 2 of IQLR, on page 6, since I sorted this out on my 68040 based SuperQL in January, and all the necessary BASIC will appear in the next PD release of Amiga Qdos! At first I thought |

| CDROM on a QXL |
Before my life as a computer tech head started, I had a distrust of computers. Those things that could file everyones life into a Big Goverment data base. Then I was introduced to a TS1000 and I thought “How could this little black box be so evil? Look it even plays games.” Being a mechanic, |

| Deskjet 320 Printer - A Review |
The Deskjet 320 is one of a line of low cost inkjet printers from Hewlett Packard. The printer is designed for mobile computing on the PC, but it can be used with a QL too (in fact, I only use it on the QL!). |

| Easy NETworking |
Amongst the QL fraternity there are a lot of users about with more than one QL or QXL who have never considered connecting them together. Why not? It really is very simple, I promise you. |

| It's Time for the Next Leap |
Do we need a next generation QL, or more accurately put, a new QDOS/SMSQ hardware platform? |

| QLers in the Oak Ridge |
My small commuter prop plane was swooping low over a lush, green region. Everywhere I looked I saw small hills covered with a thick growth of trees and shrubs. Rivers flowed, their water dark and sluggish. Scattered throughout this rich landscape were houses tucked between trees, roads winding through the land, and the fast approaching |

| Super QL Report |
I now have Qdos running 00 a 50 MHz 68060 system, with 10 Mb RAM. The processor came direct from Motorola, as part of their Alpha/Beta test program, and is fitted on a CyberStorm Amiga accelerator board, made by Phase Five in Germany; Escom have agreed to use this board on thousands of the new |

| Windows Icon's and the QXL |
Those of you who have a PC with Windows installed may have noticed that switching between Windows programs and DOS programs can cause the PC to crash. This could hardly be called normal but is quite common. Part of the QXL software runs as a DOS program and so can suffer from this. The fix |
