NEW YORK /<a href="http://www.denounce.com">DenounceNewswire</a>/
-- 29 July 1998 --
7th Level Inc. (Nasdaq: SEVL) announced on Wednesday that its
animation software can be used to create talking characters on the pages of all major
personal computer software programs and link them to the Internet.
<P>
7th Level said its Agent 7 Internet animation software will be able to produce lip
synchronized, talking characters within PowerPoint, Word, and Excel, Microsoft's
so-so office programs that everyone hates but everyone uses.
<P>
Now, instead of just a winking, swirling Microsoft damn paperclip interrupting your concentration, a wide variety
of talking, lip synchronized characters will be available to drive you out of your mind.
"This is the most insane feature yet, in an increasingly insane computer world," said
Indu Strypundit, an industry pundit.
<P>
Public demonstrations against the 7th Level software are being planned in major cities
around the world, as well as on the internet. "We don't need no stinking talking heads,"
said a spokesman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Users (PETU) today.
<P>
``We want to get people familiar the concept of taking presentations and animating them,''
7th Level's CEO Richard Merrick said to someone on Tuesday. "As for the demonstrations,
surely they're just kidding."
<P>
"No we ain't," said the PETU spokesman.
<P>
The company has undergone a turnaround since last fall when it wimped out and quit
the CD-ROM business, talked some new people into major money, and switched to an
Internet strategy since everyone else and their pet salamander is doing the same thing
so it must be the right thing to do.
<P>
No arrests have been made yet, officials say, but they add that they're on full alert
status should 7th Level try anything fancy.
