- Dear PC-DeskTeam User:
-
- We thank you for your interest in our products. PC-DeskTeam is one of
- the most popular desktop organizers and the first SHAREWARE desktop
- organizer.
-
- To assist you in learning and evaluating the program we have included
- a program named "MANUAL" that will allow you to select various topics
- from a menu. You may then view them on your monitor or print them.
- To run this program place the distribution diskette in drive A and
- enter the following commands:
-
- A:
- MANUAL
-
- Due to the size and complexity of the User's Guide we no longer
- include one on the distribution diskette. You will be able to learn
- how to use the program by reading the Quick Start Guide. A complete
- printed User's Guide is provided when you register.
-
- We recommend that you first print and thoroughly read the Quick Start
- Guide contained on the distribution diskette before you attempt to use
- the program. Also, read the section discussing the Program License
- Agreement and the Terms & Conditions. Use of this product indicates
- your acceptance of these Terms & Conditions.
-
- Take some time to scan the Product Catalog to obtain information about
- other products that we sell. These include a variety of memory
- resident programs that complement PC-DeskTeam and a number of programs
- that assist you in the management of Pop Ups and TSRs.
-
- Registration

-
- We market PC-DeskTeam using the Shareware concept, therefore you are

- Conversion Utility
- ------------------
-

- into the version 2 files DESKTEAM.C20, PRINTER.C20.
