STORY: SnagIt - The Choice of the Latest Generation

~~~~~~~~~

Dan the technical writer loved being around the interns. They were so
young, outgoing and fun - plus, full of fresh ideas. An intern named
Mark was particularly sharp, and always on top of everything.

One day Dan was talking to Mark about a project, and Mark asked, "Have
you ever used SnagIt?"

"Have I ever used SnagIt!" Dan scoffed, ready to tell Mark about how
he'd been using the screen capture program for years - how he had his
capture profiles configured so that capturing from the screen was
incredibly simple, how he'd used it to grab images for all of his
documentation - plus edit it
in the same program.

"Yeah," Mark said, missing his sarcasm. "It's the best screen capture
software on the market. It's so easy to use, plus it makes me work so
much faster. I just grab EXACTLY what I want, edit it right in the
preview window, and save it, print it, e-mail it - send it wherever I
need to go! Nothing compares to it," Mark finished.

Dan was bursting with pride for his software and his intern. He took
a breath to tell Mark that he'd been using it forever, when Mark
interjected.

"And Dan," he confided, "we all need all the help we can get to be
fast ... especially at your age," he said pointedly.

Dan said calmly, "Mark, SnagIt and I are old friends. In fact, I bet
I can show you a thing or two."

"Really?" Mark said incredulously. "I thought this was brand new!"

"It just LOOKS brand new," Dan said. "It's time-tested and aged
perfectly - like a fine bottle of wine. Except ... this wine gets
updated all the time," he added.

The two generations of writers joined together at the computer screen,
reveling in the ageless software that is SnagIt.

Get the screen capture software that meets all your needs! A new
version is just $39.95, an upgrade is $19.95.
