For immediate release
Stone Design Announces "Homecoming Sale"
September 16, 1997 - Albuquerque, New Mexico - Stone Design announced today
the "Homecoming" Sale on its suite of NEXTSTEP software, which runs on
NEXTSTEP and OpenStep MACH. In response to the placement of Steve Jobs as
interim CEO at Apple Computer, and the return of Stone Design to the
Macintosh software community, we wished to honor the pioneers who were
early adopters of this next millennial technology with some awesome prices.
The StoneWare suite consists of DataPhile(TM), the multi-media, easy to use
database manager, Create(TM), THE powerful graphics package, 3DReality(TM),
a 3D modeler and renderer, and CheckSum(TM), a check writer and finance
manager.
A bundle of all of these Stone Design applications for NEXTSTEP is now
available for only $199, a very special deal. These apps originally listed
for $1,979. This bundle includes DataPhile 3.1, Create 3.1, 3D Reality 2.1
and CheckSum 2.0. All of the licenses will be upgradeable to "Rhapsody" -
Apple Computer's codename for the next generation operating system. This
sale is only available until Nov 2, 1997. If you do not care to ftp the
apps, add $20 USA ($30 International) for CD, shipping & handling. We
accept VISA/MasterCard and money orders. FAX: 505-345-3424
DataPhile 3.1 is a flat-file database designed for people who need
flexibility without the complexities of a rigid, relational system. Using
DataPhile's intuitive front end, anyone can build and manage a database,
modifying it and generating reports easily. DataPhile also comes with a
number of useful template databases so you can begin using it right out of
the box. DataPhile requires no additional servers; it functions alone or in
a networked environment, on Motorola, Intel, Sun and HP-RISC processors.
Create 3.1 is THE fully supported drawing application for NEXTSTEP. Create
is a multi-page, full color, easy and fun to use graphics program that is
perfect for professional artists and non-artists alike. Create's tool
palette is highly extensive, including arcs, circles, lines, curves,
splines, ovals, rectangles, squares, text, super text, and freehand tools.
Create's User PostScript is unique, and perfect for advanced users or users
who would like to learn more about PostScript, view, directly edit and
repeatedly execute the PostScript code associated with any object created
in or imported into the program.
3D Reality is a 3D modeling and rendering front end for Pixar's Renderman.
3D Reality creates photorealistic three dimensional drawings and includes
many textures, shaders and sample images.
CheckSum is the personal finance manager and check writer for the NEXTSTEP
platform.
