HyperRez: Construction speed:                   <sum07 1 4>
=============================

        Experienced hypertext developers can create excellent hypertext
        systems using any number of software packages.  However, the time
        to accomplish this can vary by factors of 100 to 1.  For example:

ASCII files, production speed
=============================

        I know of hypertext developers that use our HyperRez utilities to
        daily convert 100 pages of text into more than 200 ASCII files that
        contain perhaps 400 unique cross-links.  <link10 1 4>

And...graphic hypertext, built by competitors -- Woops!
=======================================================

        Trade literature reports typical averages of less than one file per
        hour with hypertext systems that depend on graphic files such as
        HyperCard or Guide.  Not all pictures are worth a 1000 words!

        For developers, construction speed is most important; for users,
        the quality of the construction is most important <link04>.
