Windows Program Descriptions
Astronomy Lab v1.14 = ALW.ZIP
by Eric Bergman-Terrell
Astronomy Lab is a fun and educational astronomy program. Astronomy Lab will
present you with animationÆs which simulate many different astronomical
events such as: solar and lunar eclipses, lunar occupations, planetary
occupations, orbits of JupiterÆs brighter moons, and the motion of the
planets in the plane of the ecliptic. In addition, Astronomy Lab produces
several reports that predict important and exciting astronomical events of
the past, present, and future. And, Astronomy Lab generates several graphs
that illustrate many fundamental astronomical concepts. Anyone interested
in astronomy, novice or seasoned astronomers, will find this interesting and
fun.
Animouse v4.0 = ANIMOUSE.ZIP
by Troy Beckstrom
This is one of the most unusual and fun applications for WindowÆs weÆve seen
in some time. Animouse allows you to replace the normal Windows cursors
(the arrows, hourglass, and I-bar cursors) with snazzy, amusing, animated
cursors. For example, you can replace the hourglass with a ticking
grandfather clock, a bomb with a burning fuse (which explodes when the fuse
burns down), or a planet with two circling moons (our favorite). Replace the
arrow cursor with a shimmering radioactive arrow. The resizing arrows can be
pulsing, rotating, or flowing. And, there are dozens more! All shapes,
sizes, and types. (Our vote for the most entertaining - a Macintosh which,
every time you click a mouse button, gets crushed by a booted foot!)

Home Phone Book v1.01 = HPBW.ZIP
by Thomas E. Bonitz
A PIM, or Personal Information Manager, allows you to track telephone
numbers, to-do lists, set alarms and reminders, provides a calendar, and
half a dozen other things. But, what if all you want or need is an address
book? Well, Home Phone Book provides you with just that. However, you are

Shopping List Manager v3 = SLM.ZIP
by Joel Rose
If you decide to use NutriSoftÆs Nutrition for Women, you find this the
perfect companion program. Even if you donÆt use NutriSoftÆs Nutrition for
Women, youÆre going to love this little gem. Unlike most shopping list
manager programs, Shopping List Manager allows you more control over what
your list contains, the descriptions, and, the biggest difference, where you
want to buy it. You build your shopping lists per store. You usually have
one large list of items which you have to weed through. If you buy your
meats from one store and vegetables from another, you have to take the time
to determine which store to buy the item from. With a large list, it is
easy to miss something in one store and not notice until your already
across town at a different store. Shopping List Manager allows you to make
store specific lists. That way, everything you need from one store is on
its own separate list. Shopping can be a torturous ordeal. With Shopping
List Manager, it can be a breeze.
