We have run WEBSTER on quite a few configurations including laptops and a dual mode Mac. Probably the most critical requirement is the broadband Internet connection. Surfing the Internet at dial up speeds just is not very exciting and we don't recommend it.




Once the WEBSTER reader is installed you can download completed web lessons from Eldersoft. Here are some that are available (and we're working on more all the time). Note that a price is shown here but our intent is to provide these free of charge when our NPO is operational.

Would you like a preview look at some of the lessons? Remember, the lessons are designed to be run in the WEBSTER browser and run much faster and smoother there than here and many features of the lessons such as link control cannot be duplicated here. However you can get an idea about what the lessons are like from the pages presented here. To preview, click on a lesson name below:
