- Here's a hypertext applied to a non-technical, non-fiction, non-computer
- subject area. It's also available as shareware, so you can examine it's
- engine and structure at low cost.
-
- I think the most important aspect of this application is that it goes
- directly to a user. The user decides directly (that is, without an
- organizational approval process) to try this mechanism. The user may
- have *no intrinsic interest* in hypertext, but simply judge the
- application on it's utility. As you can see in the machine
- requirements, this will run on almost any PC-compatible, so the
- judgement reduces to "Do I want the benefits of this product?"
-
- I would like to know about other hypertext products that similarly
- address a consumer need. (Or arguments that position well-known
- hypertexts in this sector.)
