Sounds pretty good to me. Here is my input:
Artificial, Inc. - is a high end 3D ONLY "Developer of Virtual
Worlds on the Internet", therefore the site must explain that,
and show samples using a QT slide show with a radio announcer
type of voice explaining what the user is looking at. It would

obviously attempt to gain new customers, it is not meant to be
a nickel dime generator, hence it is our Corporate site and is
our way of explaining and demonstrating what we can do. We
do not do anything that is not high end 3D! This keeps us out of
competition with the hundreds of thousands of : hey my kid can
do a internet site, why so much?".
We do not want to do anything under $35-$50K. As we progress
we will evolve to SGI Softimage and NT Softimage "Hollywood"
3D levels.
Plus: We get to turn the StarPower stores into our COMDEX
booth! ala Starship DiagSoft... they have a large screen behind
the circular reception desk that we can run a DVD/internet
presentation on, as well as put a internet (intranet) server in
each store, which will allow us to automate their stores to
demonstrate the beginning of the convergence of Computers
and Home Theatre. They are attempting to get SONY PC's via
Nathan. This demo site for Artificial, Inc. will get us more
customers than you can handle... also, remember that David is
super hot on the DVD aquarium video footage he saw in our
DiagSoft 95 COMDEX video... he see's a major AI/StarPower
product to be used as the AI/StarPower HDTV video aquarium...
I want you, Joe, Jamie, and Chris to go to Dallas asap to visit
StarPower, and if Frank is in Dallas at the same time, to visit
with some of his PC game development friends in the real PC
Game market located there. And I want Trip Reports within one
week of your return to California.
The very high end is the only place for us to survive! That

means high end customers.
NAIG, INC. - Donald has no choice, he will sign agreements over
the next few days to proceed with whatever software vendors
that he can. Unfortunately, he has not got the funds to do so. I
doubt that he will pay Artificial unless we have a strong
contract. He cannot wait on us! His ship is leaving the dock as
we speak. I still want us to pursue competing in the Internet
Gaming software market, but we do it our way. I want you to
go to Atlanta next month to the E3 show. Frank will be there,
and so will Nathan... talk to Frank.
GHKlibrary - is a high end 3D home and small business (soho)
future product. It is to be on DVD (again HIGH END) and utilizes
ONLY 3D animation, with a drag and drop capability for
Document Storage and Management - We will call this feature,
"C.A.R.M.S." for Computer Assisted Records Management
System.
I used to build these at Microform, and all we need to do is to
interface to existing Document Storage and Retrieval Systems
using our internet based 3D animation front ends. Xerox is
pushing this concept of a paperless office, as well as all of its
competitors...
If you want a growth company you must focus on high end
product areas.
Talk Story - is to be a "gathering place for native Hawaiians"
talking pigeon english with intense aloha and hawaiian humor.
We need a few native hawaiians to help us stupid holies do this!

Plus we need them to do our voice overs...
It is to start on a beach, not a stinkin' Mall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last
time I will say this.
Of course we can have a mall, and of course we can have QT of
Hawaii and all of the tourist vendors, like the Molokini snorkel
boats, including dive footage...
If we use Talk Story to put Hawaii on the internet, the State of
Hawaii will assist us in improving tourism, since it is at an all
time low right now...
The Hawaii islands are in need of a mainland based internet
vehicle, because as the internet increases in load, so do the
costs of transmission, and the costs of telephony are out of site
in Hawaii. So what do we do? We put together a multi island
network called "BigKahuna.Net" and we have our Maui office
gather up the vendors and native hawaiians into our Mall's and
Chat rooms...
This is the story I have been telling Chris, Joe, and Jamie
forever!
Jeffrey, we will make revenue in many many ways, first bring
the hawaiians together in our Talk Story "gathering place", the
hawaiian businesses will follow, and so will the world!
AND MAKE IT FUNNY !
Work towards spreading ALOHA, and soothe the pain of the

Above all remember "hey the Kahuna is kinda like da Pope, bra"
The other native americans will follow, as will the other island
nations.
