Welcome to the second issue of RISC World, the CD-ROM magazine for all users of Acorns and other RISC OS computers. Hey, don't knock it - not every Acorn/RISC OS publication gets past its first issue, you know. This issue has been produced with Wakefield looming, and by the time you read this, the show will be over and we'll all know exactly which of the products promised actually put in an appearance. If all or most of them make it,there should be quite a resurgence in the market.
