A quick snapshot of what's discussed
here:
(1) Illumination Thoughtware™
for e-book publishing (of particular interest to major traditional,
educational, and paperback publishers - such as Ingram, Macmillan,
Dell, Scholastic, etc.)
(2) Bedtime-Story,
the web's premiere children's story site.
(3) User-friendly reader mechanisms, LunchBOOK™
and The Reader™.
(4) The Learning Station™
for Education and Training
(and as a docking station).
WHAT IS THE SOFTWARE FOR?:
Creation of books in e-book format
WHY IS THIS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT TO TRADITIONAL PUBLISHERS?
This is the ONLY software designed to protect the interests
of both the publisher and the publisher's customer, the end-user.
IS THERE A TRACK RECORD?
YES!. Development
of Illumination began nearly ten years ago. Though today's features
are more sophisticated, (we're now up to Version 7), not only today's
books, but even the very earliest books ever created in Illumination
can be read equally well on EITHER a vintage computer, or a brand
new computer. No special software is necessary to read an Illumination
book. You may either download a book from the web, receive it as
an e-mail attachment, or simply pop a floppy into your computer,
and that's that.

HOW AND WHY IS THIS SOFTWARE
DIFFERENT?
Most importantly, while it IS Windows™
compatible, it is NOT Windows
dependent . It is not HTML dependent. Unlike Adobe or other
such programs it REQUIRES NO SOFTWARE WHATSOEVER TO BE DOWNLOADED
IN ORDER TO READ THE BOOKS.
It NEVER NEEDS SOFTWARE UPGRADES to continue reading the same e-book
over the years. Each book is complete with its own reader
software. This ALLOWS BOOK COLLECTIONS TO BE BUILT IN LIBRARIES, SCHOOLS,
BUSINESSES AND HOMES. Consumers can be confident that the e-books
they purchase today will not be rendered obsolete by tomorrow's technological
advancements.
(Windows™,
which is constantly changing, and the staggering array of XML and HTML
add-ons and browser plug-ins, such as JAVA, Shockwave and the like, require
a viewer to constantly upgrade computer software, just to be able to view
websites or archived word processor files. Such is not the case here.
Improvements are simply incorporated on new e-books, without affecting
viability of earlier e-books).
Illumination e-books can be read
equally well by any IBM compatible computer, going as far back as a 386,
and having absolutely minimal disk space. Users may expect no loss in
speed. A 400 page novel with one hundred illustrations will fit on a standard
floppy disk or can be transmitted by e-mail nearly instantaneously.
The information which follows will
provide background and a detailed overview.
