We'd like to tell you about Media Magic, the $29.95

simple word processor to create text in any font and any
color, sound effects library, music composition and optional
synthesized speech through the ordinary PC speaker, Sound
Blaster and other sound card support, resolutions from
2-Color CGA through 256-color VGA, .PCX file display and
creation, store up to 100 pictures on a single 360k floppy,
special effects such as curtains, granular fades, and swipes,
grid and coordinate display for precice drawing creation,

or full screen, more, more, more!
And, with an option, you can create full multimedia
multiple-choice tests.
Media Magic comes with a royalty-free, multi-faceted
run-time program called MSHOW.EXE, with which end users can
view your presentation screen by screen, forward, backward or
randomly, and even seacrh for any word or phrase within your
presentation, or via hyperlinks, in which users can point to
anything on screen with mouse-driven or arrow-key driven
pointer and be taken to any location within your
presentation.
How can we do it all for $29.95? Here are the answers:
Media Magic is advertised via shareware, so our advertising
cost is low and therefore the price to you is low. Media
Magic is an efficient, fully self-contained package, with a
complete disk-based owner's manual. Finally, we ship
everything immediately via first class mail, so no cost is
wasted in excess warehousing/order processing. Just like
Henry Ford did with his model Ts, when the product is selling
like crazy, we lower the price and sell even more!
Because it is easy-to-use, you can start making
professional products with Media Magic the first day you own
it. To get your copy, send $29.95 in US funds to:
