Bloodshot eyes, shaky hands, and Clarus the dogcow everywhere -
where else could you find this combination except at MacHack, from
which Adam shares the winners of the MacHax Best Hack Contest.
Also in this issue, Chris Barylick examines how public schools and
user groups can aid one another, Jeff chases down Apple's frenzy
of software updates from last week, and Adam's iPhoto Visual
QuickStart Guide becomes available in paperback.

Have you missed a few TidBITS issues here and there? Geoff Duncan
explains how overly aggressive filters on your email server could
be bouncing TidBITS issues (and other email) into the ether. Also
in this issue, Eolake Stobblehouse sings the praises of the flat-
panel iMac, Adam looks ahead to events at next week's Macworld
Expo New York, eBay buys PayPal for $1.5 billion, and Microsoft
releases Internet Explorer 5.2.1.

Do you cringe when email arrives with garish colors and graphics?
Wish you could use grep pattern matching when searching your
email? Follow along with William Porter as he reviews Mailsmith,
Bare Bones Software's powerful email client. Also on the email
front, Adam continues to focus on the issue of overzealous
server-side content filtering. We also note the releases of a
Mac OS X security update and FileMaker Pro 6, and ask how much
spam you receive.

Subject: [*] BOOM 1.3 (final release)
What is BOOM?
BOOM is an arcade game in the grand tradition, bringing the
playability and feel of the glorious 8-bit consoles on the
Macintosh. It can be described as "Bomberman meets Doom".
Actually, I took the basic Bomberman idea and dropped it in a
"Super-Deformed Doom" scenario (whatever this means).
As a space marine your mission is to penetrate 8 alien infested
areas, each one divided in 10 sub-zones, eliminate all enemies
using your bombs and finally kick the Big Alien Boss back to
where he came from.
