<<< NTools E-NewsFlash >>>[tm] UPDATE NOVEMBER 7, 1997
****************************************************

Hi NT-ers,

As you know, this is the short update in between the 
full issues of NTools E-News.

This time we have a special issue and only ONE topic:

*** You Can Win A FREE MCSE Course - Value US$1,695 ***

How? Well, after months of work, this week we have 
finally released our Brand New Sunbelt Software Website!

We have been testing for a few days and things are
running smoothly. You are invited to come over and have
a look at how our new home looks, we're really happy
with it. But if you find any errors, please send them to 
[email protected]

The MAJOR new feature is our on-line Knowledge Base
where already many hundreds of technical questions
and solutions on NT and Third Party tools are available.
We are now working full blast to get it filled up with
thousands more technical solutions relating to Win NT 
3-rd party tools and system management issues. Come
and check it out!

But we also have an on-line glossary of the most used
NT slang explained in an informal way, so if you are
confused with a concept you do not get, clear it up :-)

So, how can you make a chance to win that FREE MCSE 
Course? November 28, 1997, we are going to draw "One 
Lucky Winner" who has found the right answers for the
following 10 questions and sent them to this address:
[email protected], and the winner will be
announced in NTools E-News of the weekend 29/30 Nov.

Of course we are going to make you do some work, but
that is all part of the game!
