Announcing the TDBS GamePak
by Phil Becker

Announcing a one time only very special holiday promotional offer -- The 
TDBS GamePak.  This package is a limited time offer (after March 31, 1991 it 
will never be sold again)!

This is your opportunity to experience TDBS and online games for less than
half the price of the games alone!!!  You can't afford to pass this one up, 
it will never happen again.  It is my way of saying thanks to all TBBS 
sysops who have stuck with me through this year of growth and expansion.

I have arranged with the authors of these games to buy them in bulk to get 
this special price for you.  These are the same games you have seen 
advertised by them, not stripped down versions!  The GamePak includes:

                      List

StarQuest          $149.95

BlackJack            49.95
Trivia Quiz          49.95

Towers of Hanoi      29.95
New User Question    29.95

----------------   -------
Games Subtotal     $459.55

Plus 4 user TDBSOM

Run Time Module    $250.00
----------------   -------
Total Value        $709.55

For a limited time you may order this entire package from eSoft, Inc. for 
only $195.00 plus shipping!  It is only available as a package, no portions 
are sold separately.  This offer absolutely expires March 31, 1991 and will 
never be repeated!

Available for immediate delivery.  To order call (303) 699-6565.  Visa and 
MasterCard ok as always.

Everything you need

This package has everything you need to experience TDBS online games.  The 
special TDBSOM run-time module is fully functional on single or multi-line 
TBBS systems.  It will run any compiled TDBS program for up to four users.

Yes -- the 4 user TDBSOM will allow you to run ANY compiled TDBS program on 
either a single or multi-line TBBS 2.1 system, not just the included games.  
On a multi-line TBBS up to 4 simultaneous users may use any TDBS programs, 
if a fifth user selects a TDBS program a "TDBS busy, try later" error 
message will result.

Here is your chance to try out TDBS to see what it is all about.  And for 
you SYSOPs with three lines or less, this TDBSOM lets you run any TDBS 
program anyone writes with full functionality!

High Trade-in Value

This special promotional TDBSOM has a trade-in value of $250 towards any 
size full TDBS 1.1 system, so you can save $55 just by buying the GamePak 
and trading in the Option Module.  Then the games would be free!  Or you can 
view it as getting the games at 1/2 price and the TDBSOM to run them (and 
any other TDBS programs) for free.  Either way this is the biggest sale that 
eSoft, Inc. has ever had (or likely will have for a long time to come).

Phil -- Why are you doing this?

No I haven't lost my mind!  The reason for this offer is that the TDBS 
development effort took much longer than I had expected.  This means that 
smaller TBBS only SYSOPs haven't gotten much from me this year.  Since TBBS 
2.2 is still some time off, this is my way of letting you know I still 
appreciate your support.
