Catering to huge businesses such as Harry & David, Williams-Sonoma, Lillian Vernon and Eddie Bauer as well as legions of smaller catalogers, the magazine takes pride in its ability to keep its readers up-to-date on technology advancements. Paget Press's electronic catalog, the Electronic AppWrapper, was featured in the Update section. The article, titled "What's Next? Paget Press's CD-ROM catalog", outlined the process by which Paget sells software to NEXTSTEP users: "Software cataloger Paget Press has taken high-tech direct marketing to a new level, delivering both its catalog and many of its software products on the same compact disk. . .`It's like pulling the product out of the picture in a paper catalog.'" The article also described NeXT's move out of hardware and onto the Intel platform. The Electronic AppWrapper has doubled the number of product entries with each issue and is now sells more products for NEXTSTEP than any other source. There are over 250 products for sale, with product paragraphs, screen shots, demonstration applications and brochures--all right on-line. To purchase a product, the subscriber simply clicks the "Order Form" button and sends the order by email, fax or mail. An annual subscription to the Electronic AppWrapper (four quarterly issues) costs $36 in North America and $60 outside North America. The Electronic AppWrapper was the winner of NeXTWORLD Magazine's Best of Breed Award for Content / Information in May, 1993.
