Company Objectives as stated in 1986 which remain relevant, even more so, today :

We aim to provide software that will help realize the full potential of the Personal Computer to be a powerful, useful and friendly servant around the home, school and office. We are concentrating on programs that either:

  • organised in the use of their time
  • economical in the use of their money and resources
  • purposeful and effective in their decisions
