Welcome to the High-Tech Times, a new On-Line Connection column that will address the needs and interests of microcomputer technologists in Hawaii.

My name is Ken Goldstein, and I'm a Principal in Computer-Aided Technologies International, Inc., located in Kaneohe.I'll act as coordinator and moderator of the column, and plan to have guest columnists with topics of both general and specific interest.If you have topics that you would like to see discussed, please feel free to call me at (808) 521-2259, or you can e-mail me at info@catii.com.

I plan to discuss applications that run on both Windows and Macintosh platforms, and will give even more time to software packages that run on both of those computer systems.There are a lot of interesting technologies, like interactive multimedia, video digitizing, and voice recognition, that I'll be explaining over the next few months, too.
