{ MONEY & BANKS },  Personal Banking Manager Software                    V1.4
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

{ MONEY & BANKS }  is an easy-to-use personal banking system with an unusually
attractive interface for the DOS environment.  It is fast, efficient, and
maintains accurate records for personal or small business checking, NOW, and
money market accounts.  Unlike most other personal financial programs, { MONEY
& BANKS }  is NOT designed by formal accountants, has no double-entry bookkeep-
ing, and does not bog the user down in obscure, irrelevant detail.  It is,
therefore, simple and a joy to use.  This software allows one to do his/her
banking with automatic assignment of allocations, but NO "budget forecasting"
or loan amortization tables or other superfluous modules that slow the exe-
cution of the program and the task at hand.

The graphics-quality interface is second-to-none in all of commercially avail-
able banking software for DOS computers, including the top-rated programs
available in retail stores.

Features include on-line documentation, context-sensitive help, hot-key
calculator and calendar, check printing on regular bank-printed personal- or
business-size checks (no special-order checks!), and a mailing label writer
for paying bills that come with no return envelopes.  Reports are auto-
matically generated from a multiple selection of pre-designed queries and are
beautifully shown on the screen or sent to a wide variety of printers.  A util-
ities menu offers automatic, reliable backups, system information, a credit
cards minder, a securities (CD's / Bonds / Portfolio) table, an Appointments
scheduler, and other selections.  There is no practical limit on the number
of accounts that may be used and the account tables may grow to sizes not
even imaginable in most competitive programs.  The automatic and simple-to-use
reconciliation module for monthly bank statements is a feature alone worth
twice the low registration price.

The "unregistered copy" version is fully functional, except for the automatic
end-of-year archive and purge of data tables available in the registered ver-
sion.  It allows a generous evaluation period so that the user may determine
whether or not to purchase a registered copy that also does not have the "un-
registered" reminder screen at the outset.  The full registration fee is only
$25.00.

{ MONEY & BANKS }  will work on PC's with a minimum of 512k of memory, DOS
3.1 or greater, and any video system (although there are some VGA-specific
features that are compensated for with other video cards, including mono-
chrome).  Expanded memory will be utilized if it is present, but is not re-
quired.  Mouse support is provided; however, a mouse is not necessary to use
the program.  A hard disk is mandatory.  Installation is quick, easy, and
offers an option to print the formatted documentation.
