- (Abstracted from the program documentation)...
-
- BestGues is a task planning tool intended to complement the
- increasingly popular scheduling programs which have proliferated in
- recent years. BestGues is based on the PERT time estimating
- technique (as opposed to the PERT task charting technique found in
- many planning packages), helping you to conveniently estimate how
- much time to assign to each scheduled event. PERT time estimating
- using BestGues is a statistically based approach. You break each
- major schedule item into subtasks (up to 15) and assign a minimum,
- typical and maximum time estimate for each. On your command,
- BestGues then calculates probability data for your entries. This
- data helps you to estimate the task duration to with a statistically
- determined confidence of success.
-
- BestGues has been designed specifically to make the PERT estimating
- process easy to use. The menu prompts virtually eliminate the need
- for a manual or chart of commands. The line editor commands for data
- entry are very similar to the keystrokes for most popular word
- processors.

- BestGues will work with any IBM PC/XT/AT/PS2 system or compatible
- with either a monochrome or color graphics adapter of any flavor.
- The display card and monitor must have graphics capability. The IBM
- monochrome display adapter is not supported. Memory requirements are
- minimal. The program will run easily in 128K of memory including DOS
- (most systems have 640K these days). PC-DOS or MS-DOS 2.0 or above
- is required.
-
- BestGues was designed to operate with any serial or parallel printer.
- Only standard ASCII codes are output to the printer. No special
- print codes are used. The program has been tested on Epson FX-80
- compatible printers, the HP DeskJet, and the Epson LQ series of
- printers with no problems.
