At Ease
Copyright 1992, Apple Computer, Inc.
Presenting At Ease™ from Apple, a new extension to System 7 which
provides customer with the best way to let others use their Macintosh.
At Ease is the perfect solution for teachers, parents, and trainers who want to
make Apple Macintosh computers even easier to use for young and novice
users--and, at the same time, protect the valuable contents of the computer’s
hard disk. A versatile extension to Macintosh System 7, At Ease provides
speedy, one-click access to the applications and documents you specify, and
protects remaining disk contents with a password.
You can install and set up At Ease in just a few minutes. After that, a single,
simple click on At Ease’s large buttons is all it takes to launch pre-selected
applications or open documents. There’s no need for beginning Macintosh users
to search through desktop clutter to find files; young users don’t need the
dexterity to manage small icons or pull down menus using the mouse.
Just as important, At Ease protects the remaining contents of the hard disk
drive from unauthorized access. When you use the password option, for example,
no one without the password can open, duplicate, rename, delete, or move other
applications, files, and folders, or change system settings.
It’s also much easier to maintain an orderly hard disk with At Ease, because
its single document folder is readily accessible. In addition, you can lock
hard disk contents so users are forced to save files on a floppy disk.
There’s another plus: At Ease saves memory. At Ease uses less memory than the
standard System 7 Finder, making up to 200K of system memory available for use
by your applications.
Together, these features make At Ease a safe, friendly, and easier-to-use
Macintosh desktop environment for young and novice users.
