     What is MAXimize?
     =================

     MAXimize is an Application Interface Manager (AIM) that will
     dramatically improve your productivity by allowing you to easily
     design, build and control the interface to your applications.    You
     will find it easy and fun to build your own interface to the
     applications on your computer.  The result is an intuitive interface
     designed specifically for you.  This will increase your speed and
     reduce errors, thus dramatically improving your productivity both when
     using and changing that interface.

     An AIM is virtually an operating environment, which is significantly
     more powerful and sophisticated then a menu system, yet not to the
     extent of Windows.  All three have the capability to "launch"
     applications by simply choosing a selection.  However, it would be an
     injustice to call Windows or MAXimize a menu system due to their
     significantly greater speed, ease, capabilities and sophistication.

     MAXimize comes in two editions, the Basic edition for novice to
     intermediate users and the Gold edition for the intermediate to
     advanced computer users.  Both editions can run on Local Area Networks
     (LANs), including usage logging and check in/out capabilities.
