Early Bird Version 1.0d README.DOC file
=======================================

To run Early Bird, the following are the system requirements:

o IBM PC, XT, AT, PS/2 or 100% compatible

o PC-DOS or MS-DOS Version 2.1 or later

o At least 200k of available RAM memory. (The number of
reminders supported by Early Bird is limited only by memory.)

o One double-sided floppy disk drive. (A hard disk is optional
but recommended for an improvement in speed.)

o 80-column color or monochrome monitor. No graphics monitor
capability is needed. (You may select any color scheme to
use with Early Bird.)

o Microsoft mouse or compatible is optional. If used, version
6.14 or higher of the mouse driver (or equivalent) is
required.

o A printer is optional if you wish to get printed output of
your reminders. (User selectable printer configuration
options are supported).


If you are having problems seeing parts of Early Bird on your computer
monitor due to the default color selections, simply start up the
Early Bird Editor with the option /EB or /LCD. That is, for example:

EB /LCD

Then select the Options pull-down menu, choose Modify Colors, and select
any colors that you prefer.


To register or order upgrade disks for Early Bird, print out the file
ORDER.DOC on your printer, fill it out, and return it to Allan Computer
Products.
