STORY: Warming up to SnagIt

"I can't believe you're cold!" Dan the technical writer said to his
co-worker Amy. She always surprised him. Even though he felt
perfectly comfortable, she was forever wearing a sweater and running
her space heater.

"Dan," Amy teased. "It's nearly impossible to make every single
person happy . . . it's hard to get even two people to completely
agree on anything!"

"It's not that difficult," Dan countered. "Look at SnagIt."

"The screen capture program - what about it?" Amy asked.

"Well, SnagIt won the PC Magazine Editors' Choice Award and their
Five-Star Ranking Award. So all the editors had to agree on that,"
Dan said. "And - over seven million users have turned to SnagIt for
their screen capture needs. That's a big number."

"I've never actually tried to use it," Amy said. "So I don't have an
opinion."

Dan held back a gasp of disbelief. Instead, he swallowed, composed
himself and said, "Well, let me help you download your free
evaluation!"

Later, Amy hailed him as he walked past her desk. "SnagIt works
great!" she said. "I don't have to crop, I can capture absolutely
anything on the screen, and it makes my work go so much more quickly!"

Dan noticed that she'd shed her sweater and had her space heater on LOW.

Maybe that's why I'm always so comfortable, Dan thought. The
excitement of possessing good software is as warming as a cup of
coffee.

ANNOUNCE: TurboDemo -- Formats For All

How frustrating it is when you want to send information to
someone only to find out that they have different
operating systems, Internet browsers, or long demonstration
times and cannot view your demos. TurboDemo helps alleviate
these anxieties by allowing you to create your demos in
Flash, Java, Exe, AVI and Standalone formats.

You might ask yourself what are some of the advantages of
these different formats and the good news is that with
TurboDemo you can choose your compilation format of choice.

Using Flash, audio and sound are best compressed and a Flash
Plug-In is very small in file size and quick to download
from the internet. When you create your demos in Java the
size of a 1 min demo is between 100-200 KB and smaller than
those in Flash. An Exe Demo does not require an Internet
browser and interactive hot keys are supported. A standalone
demo is suitable for sending via CD to end-users and unlike
Flash, interactive right mouse clicks and double clicks are
supported. AVI demos can be sent via CD to end-users and
no Internet broser is required. In AVI, Standalone and Java
there is no duration limit to the demos.

To find out more about demo formats please contact us at
TurboDemo via our toll free numbers at www.turbodemo.com
