The Computer's Demise!
LOW-TECH BREAKTHROUGH!
A New Page In History
Announcing the new Built-in Orderly Organized Knowledge device (BOOK). It's
a
revolutionary breakthrough in technology: no wires, no electric circuits,
no
batteries, nothing to be connected or switched on. It's so easy to use even
a
child can operate it. Just lift its cover. Compact and portable, it can be
used
anywhere -- even sitting in an armchair by the fire -- yet it is powerful
enough to hold as much information as a CD-ROM disk.
Here's how it works: Each BOOK is constructed of sequentially numbered
sheets
of paper (recyclable), each capable of holding thousands of bits of
information. These pages are locked together with a custom-fit device
called a
binder which keeps the sheets in their correct sequence. By using both
sides of
each sheet, manufacturers are able to cut costs in half.
Each sheet is scanned optically, registering information directly into your
brain. A flick of the finger takes you to the next sheet. The BOOK may be
taken
up at any time and used by merely opening it. The "browse" feature allows
you
to move instantly to any sheet, and move forward or backward as you wish.
Most
come with an "index" feature, which pinpoints the exact location of any
selected information for instant retrieval.
An optional "BOOKmark" accessory allows you to open the BOOK to the exact
place
you left it in a previous session -- even if the BOOK has been closed.
BOOKmarks fit universal design standards; thus a single BOOKmark can be
used in
BOOKs by various manufacturers.
Portable, durable and affordable, the BOOK is the entertainment wave of the
future, and many new titles are expected soon, due to the surge in
popularity
of its programming tool, the Portable Erasable-Nib Cryptic
Intercommunication
Language Stylus (referred to by the acronym PENCILS To those in the trade).
