NewTech Infosystems, Inc., (NTI) the company Mac users trust for
delivering more robust software alternatives to the basic capabilities
available with Apple products, has launched NTI Dragon Suite. The new
software suite includes three powerful Mac user favorites, NTI Dragon
Burn, Dragon FliX and NTI Shadow into a single, value-packed solution.
Combined, the applications provide simplified burning, space-saving
compression and reliable backup.
NTI Dragon Burn -- NTI Dragon Suite benefits from the decade of
experience NTI gained in developing and enhancing its award-winning
Dragon Burn digital media solution. With Dragon Burn's patented
multi-burning technology, internal and external drives can be used to
create multiple copies of a CD or DVD simultaneously. Offering broad
compatibility, NTI Dragon Suite includes support for the leading video,
audio, photo and data formats. The software is also fully compatible
with the newest internal and external drives--including 16x DVD-R
drives. With the click of a button, users can burn to recordable CD,
DVD/R/RW and DVD-RAM discs as well as 8.5GB DVD+R Double Layer (DL)
media.
For files that require more capacity than a single disc can
provide, Dragon Burn's disc spanning feature can be used to
automatically organize and archive the files to a series of discs
without jeopardizing data integrity.
To ensure high-quality recordings, NTI Dragon Burn scans and
validates all files prior to burning and provides "burn proof"
support. Graphic feedback during the burn process shows users the
percent that has been completed.
After burning their CD or DVD, Dragon Burn users can design and
print personalized CD/DVD labels and jewel case inserts using the
included label design software.
NTI Dragon FliX -- By including Dragon FliX, NTI Dragon Suite
enables Mac users to make high-quality backup copies of their DVDs with
all of the video, audio, languages and menus of the original and offers
convenient, cost-saving compression options. Users can compress an
unencrypted 8.5 GB dual-layer movie down to a 4.7 GB single-layer disc,
remove unwanted features and burn it to a disc without having to split
the movie onto two discs. By compressing movies to fit on
less-expensive, single-layer media, users can lower their copying cost.
Dragon FliX users also have the option of selecting either the entire
DVD for compression or just the main movie without the extras to save
space and to retain quality.
NTI Shadow -- For continuous, real-time backup in the native file
format and easy drag and drop recovery, Dragon Suite includes NTI's
award-winning Shadow software. Shadow is a personal backup tool that
captures updates to files as they occur. In addition to conveniently
executing backup jobs transparently in the background without disturbing
the user, Shadow does not take up valuable PC resources that could slow
system performance. Equipped with a wizard-style interface, the Backup
Scheduler makes it easy to set a convenient time (day, hour, minute) for
backing up large amounts of data or large files. Users can also schedule
multiple backup jobs to multiple destinations.
With custom file filtering for specific file types (audio, picture,
video, and document) as well as custom file type filtering, users can
select specific file types for backup. Shadow also provides
comprehensive version control. Users can save an unlimited number of
revisions, a specific number of revisions (1-1000) or no revisions to
ensure that backups are always kept in sync with the original file.
Availability, Pricing NTI Dragon Suite can be used with Mac OS X
10.3.9 or later operating systems and Power PC G3 Processor or later
systems and has an MSRP of US $79.99. The software suite is available to
retail customers through NTI's online store at www.NTIus.com and
other online retailers. In Europe, Dragon Suite is offered exclusively

Dragon Burn, NTI Dragon Flix, NTI Shadow and CD/DVD labeling software.
