ABIDEWORLDWIDE  I've used this program for corporate TV production to help executives with scripts on camera. It has worked very well every time and for the price I'm glad to have bought a good program.

Recommended.

ABIDEWORLDWIDE  I've downloaded the demo and played around with it. So understand my comments are based on limited experience using the application.

First impressions are not positive though. It appears to be a program written for classic then brought over to OSX. The interface lacks elegance and looks Windoze like.

It crashed when I attempted to quit. It was not easy to my thinking to navigate. The real crazy bit is the price. Visiting the site it says to buy it would cost $1,500.00.

That's a bit steep when other and better teleprompting apps go for around $50.00. Check out Presentation Prompter by NextForce Software for example.

I downloaded the demo for it and did the amazing actually buying the full version ($65) because it works so well and looks great.

Fifteen hundred or sixty-five? Even if it were exceptional software (which it doesn't seem to be even average at that) I wouldn't fork over the cash.

Buy a MacBook instead with the money and have enough left over for Presentation Prompter which is good software on a great computer.
