Free Bonus described at the end of this document!
=================================================
My Little Realm/the System lets you use your PC to maintain and
balance your checking account; track your credit card expenses;
create a phone/address book; print labels; address envelopes;
track savings instruments; create a library of your personal
books, tapes, cd's, etc.; monitor public library withdrawals;
create "memory" records so the computer can remember where your
important documents (like wills, passports, etc.) are kept; track
business expenses and incomes for part-time jobs; easily backup
and retrieve files; encourage young readers to visit their local
libraries; and still more.
MLR/the System is self-installing, comes with a 192 page User's
Guide and a documentation viewer, and is so easy to use, you
don't need know a thing about DOS, accounting, or file
maintenance to make use of the entire system.
You can also purchase many of My Little Realm's programs
separately. These stand-alone programs can be run from either a
floppy disk or a hard disk. The stand-alone programs even make
great gifts! They'll run on almost any kind of IBM compatible PC.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Stand-alone Programs of My Little Realm
* Calling Cards
Calling Cards lets you access your phone/address database as if it
were your own personal Yellow Pages. If you need a plumber, just
tell Calling Cards to get you the number of your plumber. Calling
Cards prints standard labels, shipping labels, Rolodex cards,
checklists, and envelopes. Requires a dot-matrix printer.
* Charging
If you're the "typical" American family you have seven credit
cards. Have you ever wondered where you stood with all of those
cards? How much is out on this one or that one? Or all of them?
The press of a single key in Charging will answer those questions.
Many credit card companies offer great benefits, from earning
small rebates on what you purchase (like Discover) to large savings
on cars and pickup trucks (like Ford and GM). Make maximum use of
the credit cards that pay you back by charging what you normally
purchase with cash or check (groceries, gasoline, and medicine),
and let Charging keep track of your expenditures for you.
* Checking
Checking makes checkbook maintenance a breeze. You create the
records of your checks, deposits, autowithdrawals, and so on with a
minimum of data entry. A degree in accounting is definitely not
required. Checking automatically balances your checking account
and tracks your personal income tax deductions (or whatever else
you tell it to keep track of).
* Private Library
Private Library gives you the opportunity to put all of your
personal volumes (books, cd's, video tapes, etc.) online. You can
sort, search, view and print your records in a variety of ways.
* Public Library
Tired of paying overdue fines at your local library? Public
Library remembers when books are due, and it maintains a historical
file of everything you borrow. That makes it great for high school
and college students who want an easy way to keep track of their
research materials.
* Read More
Read More encourages young readers to make use of their public
libraries. Kids frequently complain that they can't find anything
to read. The titles that come with Read More are fun reading.
Read More encourages young readers by showing them a wide variety
of new authors and works that they would enjoy reading. Kids can
check off the books they read to have Read More display smiley
faces next to them. Kids love to watch the smiley faces add up.
Books are listed by age groups. For ages 6 months through young
adult.
* Records of the Realm
Records of the Realm remembers when you can't. It helps you locate
important documents in short order. This program can also save you
a lot of trouble and headaches should you ever lose one or more of
your credit cards. It will automatically generate a list of phone
numbers for your credit card issuers so you can: quickly make the
necessary calls to stop payments; print letters to those same
issuers (required by most credit card issuers); and print labels
for the envelopes.
* Savings
Savings lets you keep track of all of your savings instruments ...
certificates of deposit, passbook savings, Keough plans, IRA's, and
so on. Thinking about buying a new home or refinancing the one you
have now? Print your savings portfolio and bring it with you when
you visit your loan representative. It'll save you lots of time.

My Little Realm/The System
When you purchase My Little Realm/the System, you get all eight of
the above programs PLUS:
1 Main Menu. You can easily change color modes, shell out to DOS,
check your computer's resources, and invoke MLR's
ScreenSaver ... all at the touch of a button. It
also gives you easy, single-key access to all of the
MLR programs described above.
2 Utilities. MLR comes with its own backup and retrieval
utilities. You can back up all of your files with
the press of a single key. And you can retrieve
backed up files by simply telling Retrieve which MLR
program has a bad file. Retrieve does the rest.
You don't have to know a thing about DOS!
3 Documentation. MLR/the System comes with a 192 page User's
Guide. It also has its own documentation viewer so
you can refer to the help files online if the User's
Guide isn't handy.
4 Common interface. MLR's programs are easy to learn. And once
you learn how to use one, you'll know how to use
them all because they all work the same way.
5 Review Programs. You get two review programs that let you
access your checking and charging files to see how
you've been spending your hard-earned money. Both
allow you to peruse your files in a scrollable
window, query your records, and search them as
well. You can even generate a year-to-date summary.

2.5 MB of hard disk space.
