FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Now You're Cooking! v5 Released

(Knoxville, TN -- April 19, 1999) -- Loginetics, Inc. today announced release of v5 of Now You're Cooking! recipe software, the award-winning cyberkitchen companion that manages all aspects of cooking. The new version is available for Windows 98, 95, and NT 4.0 operating systems at http://www.ffts.com.

Now You're Cooking! v5 (32-bit edition) seamlessly integrates recipe organization, nutrition analysis, cooking tips, meal planning, shopping lists, and grocery cost management into a single interface. NYC cuts hours off the time normally invested each week in these household activities.  NYC imports recipes in various formats from scanned or internet sources where hundreds of thousands of recipes are available.

New features in v5 include a fresh user interface, toolbar choices, spell checker, recipe images capability, improved recipe entry and print options, pop-up calendar, glossary of cooking terms and tips, more database management tools, and web connectivity for quick recipe downloads and user support.  Features that use recipes across multiple cookbooks have been significantly enhanced, including multi-criteria recipe search, meal planning, and duplicate recipe deletion.
 
NYC applications range from fundamental (e.g., household meal planning) to highly specialized (e.g., client education by dietitians who stress nutritional value of subtle diet changes).  NYC has evolved with feedback from users in all walks of life, including households, dietitians, personal chefs, caterers, bed-and-breakfasts, day cares, churches, schools, and dormitories.  "Over 300 diverse users participated in v5 beta testing over the past year.", says Gary Hauser, Loginetics president.  NYC v5 is receiving early recognition from respected organizations like WUGNet and ZDNet.
