* 1997 Evaluation Disks Catalog *
----------------------------------


RCCO Research is a leading publisher of user-supported software products
offering one of the largest catalogs of original programs in that genre
for DOS and Windows users.

Our objects-oriented technology software products are now available from
more than 400 user-supported software disk dealers in the United States,
plus countless BBS's and information networks throughout the world and
are widely available on several of the major CD-ROM disk editions.

Disk duplication fees charged by the various vendors provide functional 
evaluation copies but do not include registration, which may be purchased 
separately from RCCO Research after evaluation.

Commercial versions of some products may preclude those titles being
available as evaluation copies in some countries (including the United
States).  All RCCO Research programs are copyrighted and most titles are
trademarks.

A partial catalog of current offerings appears below.  Other, older titles
are still available and supported.  Please consult your favorite
user-supported software source for the availability of current DOS and
Windows(R) programs from RCCO Research.

We are constantly adding new titles and making revisions to our catalog.
