1212 - Summary/Objective
1213 -
121301 - Follow up ref SDS 10 0000.
121302 -
121303 - On 931117 received article on Echo Pro. ref SDS 8 8403
121304 -
121305 - Morris said the other day that Chips has begun using Ecco Pro to
121306 - schedule people for conference rooms.  He said the Newton did not work
121307 - as well hoped when he switched from the Wizard.  He believes Echo Pro
121308 - will do a better job than the Newton to accomplish objectives to
121309 - improve management which he hoped to accomplish using the Wizard,
121310 - reported in our discussion on 920215. ref SDS 3 5774
121311 -
121312 -     This is about the 3rd or 4th "easier" to use method Morris has
121313 -     tried.  On 911121 he was using the Wizard because of superior
121314 -     performance. ref SDS 2 4195
121315 -
121316 -     [On 951228 Ecco Pro is working great for scheduling group
121317 -     meetings; it is less effective for management. ref SDS 11 5850
121318 -
121319 -     [Morris reports Chips changed from Ecco Pro to Lotus Organizer on
121320 -     970607. ref SDS 12 5838

121322 -  ..
121323 - Millie said an employee at Lillick & Charles is using Echo Pro, and
121324 - reported it "does everything."  She said other L&C employees got an
121325 - orientation recenly on a new software program to keep notes of things
121326 - to do.  She feels this will be helpful.  People can send other people
121327 - assignments, and if they don't respond then you can assume they will
121328 - perform.  She said this new program carries unperformed tasks forward.
121329 -
121330 - When a task is complete, the User can check it off, and then it will
121331 - no longer appear on the schedule.
