Chronosis in for a officious Expo week . At its booth on the show floor ( Booth 707 , for those of you at Expo ) , the company is showing off two recently release products — StickyBrain 4 , the note of hand manager that just added reinforcement for Spotlight ( among other changes ) , and SOHO Organizer , a personal job productivity cortege . On top of that , Chronos is showing off a product it just announced Monday , SOHO Signs .

calculate at modest federal agency , home drug user , and schools , SOHO Signs lets you assemble large - sized posters , ground stakes , banners , and other character of signage you ’d unremarkably have to regularize from a photographic print shop . You create the pattern using the included software , impress out your project using an ordinary ink - special K or optical maser pressman and 8.5 - by-11 - inch repositionable adhesive sheets . Just attach the sheet to the support — pre - brand grid crinkle help you straighten matter up — and you ’ve got a sign on your hand .

This is n’t the sorting of thing graphic professionals will turn to , but for minuscule mom - and - pop operations , classroom projects , and parents who just want to make a banner celebrating their kid ’s birthday , spend $ 17 to $ 34 on a sign kit sure enough beats a much more expensive head trip down to the local mark shop .

What ’s interesting about SOHO Signs is that Chronos is make it withAvery Dennison Office Products , which makes its Mac first appearance with this product . “ They did n’t have a Mac answer until we talked to them , ” said Robert McCullough , frailty president of marketing for Chronos .

And that ’s a positive sign of the zodiac for the overall health of the Mac market , not because a product like SOHO Signs will convince a pile of people they need to switch to the OS , but because a companionship like Avery Dennison took a flavour at the Mac and decided it was worth the time and effort to make a product for that platform . Any time something like that happens , it ’s deserving noting — perhaps with a SOHO Signs - create standard pit the occasion .
