Hmm, the phrase "monopoly on the SAM market" is beginning to spring
to mind when I hear the name Persona ;)

transfering Fred > Publishing to Persona, this agreement also includes the
disk magazine `FRED`.
Nice one, and it makes good sense, at least as far as the software
is concerned, but what is going to happen with FRED and Blitz? Okay, they
have never been exactly the same sort of mags, with Fred being the more
gamesy, and Blitz being more techy, but there has certainly been some
overlap. I'd really like to see Fred becoming purely gamesy, and Blitz
becoming purely techy. That way people could subscribe to one or the other
or both (subbers to both could get a nice discount).
> All existing Fred products are now only available from PERSONA.
I trust you have covered yourself where Kaboom is concerned!
Speaking of which, any chance of you convincing Wayne to do something
(anything?!) with it?
