- Whenever someone says that, I'm curious what kind of software they're
- looking for. I've got software that I don't even have time to use, and
- none of it is games.
-
- So, Len, what kind of software are you looking for that isn't currently
- available? If anyone else wants to jump in, please do. :^)

- Actually, one might think that in a small market such as the ST's, everyone
- would hear about a product right when it was released. Unfortunately, the
- press and the developers selling the product don't always seem to walk hand
- in hand to get the word out. There's a new image manipulation package out
- from Canada (I think) called INVISION Elite. There's good support for it
- on GEnie, but it seems the only ones who know about it are on GEnie. I
- don't recall if any of the on-line magazines ran a press release on it,
- although there was a GEnie Real-time Conference on it recently, so that
- may have been included in a magazine. There's an excellent demo of it
- with sample pics that I would upload to atari.archive, but I don't have
- FTP access (at least to send I don't). If someone wants to send it to
- atari.archive, I could probably uuencode it and send it your way.
-
- INVISION Elite is real high-quality stuff. Apparently, Mario Georgio from
- DMC Publishing (ISD Marketing) loves it.
