NEW LAPTOP LINKING TOOL FROM BRIGGS SOFTWORKS

Houston, TX -- Briggs Softworks announces the release of Link Maven 1.0,
the latest file utility program that allows Windows users to transfer
files between two PCs connected with a printer port cable. Use Link Maven
to synchronize files between your laptop and desktop PCs or to transfer
data files when upgrading to a new computer.

The Link Maven interface consists of a dual tree/file list that displays
the contents of both PCs simultaneously. Copy, move, or delete files,
groups of files, or whole directories between the connected PCs with a
single command. Use the freshen and update modes for file synchronization.

Link Maven is available for Windows 95 through 2000 and requires a
Laplink/Interlnk compatible parallel link cable (not included). The
license fee is $29 plus S&H.  Multi-user site licenses are also available.
Visit the Briggs Softworks web site to download an evaluation copy, view
screen shots, and read more about the program.

developer, producing Windows utilities in the areas of encryption,
