In 1995 MicroPower hired me to build "The World of Cars", and I used #macromediadirector. @VWGroup and @motul sponsored our #cdrom. In the first 2 years it sold more than @galinho1953 's disk, from the same label.

In 1996 AGWM Publisher hired me to produce a multimedia disk for @Exxonmobil
distributors. 1.44mb of pure information. No installation, no DLLs, no pain: just the #goodolddays of IT in Brazil in a #clicknplay #macromediadirector.
