Q. In issue 88, you reviewed the Commodore modem. Could you tell me the rough cost of logging on to Compunet, and is there a Compunet in Scotland?

A. Membership of Compunet is included in the cost of the modem so for the first year at least, you will pay only for the use you make of the system.

Compunet terminal systems will be established around the country and from Glasgow that should mean phone calls at local rates. How much else you pay is up to you. Compunet is offering several services for which you will be liable to a charge, from downloadable software to mailbox facilities.
