Roy creates the programs and demonstrates the software intricacies to visitors and anyone else who might be interested. We've been working on this software program for eight years. With three degrees from Baylor University in Waco, Texas, the final one a Ph.D. in physics, Brown is an intense man who feels very strongly about his Bible software. Even if you say Macs are only 10 to 15 percent of the computer market, we have much of that market. But lack of competition is not why Brown chose to use a Mac engine to fire his Bible software application.
Ease of use is.
Our goal is not to reach the broadest audience. When Brown first introduced Accordance software in 1994, it was purely for scholars. We started out at the high end with the three basics, the Greek New Testament, the Hebrew Bible and the Septuagint, which was the first translation of the Bible ever, by the way, from Hebrew to Greek. Recently, he and a small team in Orlando have developed additional software at introductory levels. We started out offering it on a floppy disk, and now Accordance comes on seven different CD ROMs.
