Voyager Mindtools Inc. Announces Sale of Twin Cities 128 to Parsec Inc. May 24, 1991 Voyager Mindtools Inc., a firm which specializes in the production and distribution of microcomputer related information, particularly in the Commodore computing world, announced today several significant changes to the nature and scope of its business. First the company announced that during the next few weeks it would be selling Twin Cities 128: The Commodore 128 Journal to Parsec Inc. In addition to taking over the publication of Twin Cities 128, as part of the sale, Parsec will obtain the rights to the Twin Cities 128 Compendium Book #1 and the right to produce future anthology collections of past issues of Twin Cities 128. Loren Lovhaug, the president of Voyager Mindtools Inc. and the founder of Twin Cities 128 back in 1986 commented, "This is a hard thing for me to do. Over the years a lot of my heart and soul has found its way onto the pages of Twin Cities 128. But I know that the sale of TC128 is the best thing we can do for both our company and for Twin Cities 128 readers. We have had a hard time producing issues in a timely fashion, primarily because our attention and resources have been diverted towards other activities crucial to our company's continued success. Therefore, when it came down to actually selecting someone to carry on the tradition of TC128, I felt that it was important to select a party who not only shares my interest and dedication to the 128 user community, but also has the ability to do a better job as far as fulfillment is concerned. My goal was to find someone who could recharge Twin Cities 128 with their energy and enthusiasm. I was fortunate to find these qualities in John Brown." John Brown, the president of Parsec Inc., added, "It is my goal to bring TC128 back the high level of service and quality readers enjoyed during the 128's heyday. I will be seeking out the talented writers and authors in the 128 community and compensating them for their efforts, in order to deliver the kind of in depth information 128 owners crave." Loren Lovhaug, also stated, "Our sale of TC128 does not signal our abandonment of Commodore 8 bit users. On the contrary, in fact, today we are announcing three new products directed specifically at Commodore 64 and 128 owners. These new products will join our already successful Commodore eight bit product line which includes: IPaint, our spectacular breakthrough high resolution graphics package for the Commodore 128 and our encyclopedic 500 C128 Questions: Answered.
