Double Meaning never had a Better Meaning

INTRODUCTION

"...Haim is a great performer and thinker, with an idea being born every day. You are fotunate today to experience one of his simplest yet most brilliant creations: CRYPTEXT."
- JB, Pro-Magic Inc

Effect

The Magician senses a strange feeling of familiarity with an audience member and asks for their name. The audience member's name is written and placed onto the stage for everyone to see. A calculator is taken out and passed around the audience. The Magician asks the first member with the calculator to input any four digit number that has meaning to them and then the calculator is passed on. Numbers and equations are inputed into the calculator per each passing member. The final digit is totaled. The magician pulls out a sealed envelope with a prediction written before the show. The sealed envelope is passed onto a audience member to verify the envelope is sealed and is asked to read the prediction out loud. The audience member says a name. The same name as the audience member previously written on the board. The last member holding the calculator is introduced onto the stage and is asked to read the number. The magician asks the audience to turn the board with the audience member's name upside down. It is revealed to be a peerfect match of the number just given.

Cryptext is a custom designed True-Type font with an interesting property. Type anything you want and adjust the font size to suit your needs. After installing Cyptext on your computer, you will be able to print off special characters quickly and easily. However, It is more effective if you learn to write in this style yourself. This allows you to prepare messages anywhere, even in front of the audience. It also lends an impromptu feel which is not present with type written predictions.

Comes with Glossy, 20-page Photo-Illustrated, Instruction Booklet and CD.

This isn't a trick but it is a fantastic concept.
The best way to describe it is you know how if you type 58008 into a calculator and turn it upside down it looks like a word, well it's that concept but applied to revealations for a trick.

This concept won't work equally as well with every letter, but it's up to you to design a routine where the outcome is the most clear. This may not make sense at the moment but when you get it it will!

CD-rom? Needs to be updated but glad I got the information to figure out how to apply this method of revealing information.

So I have bought it and I think I am going to love it.
However, I don't have a CD - Rom Player at this time.
Was wondering if it came in another digital format.
thanks

I am being extremely generous and giving this four stars, and that is because it is an amazing concept but nowhere was it mentioned that it doesn’t work on an apple device, only on windows or Macintosh. Please correct me if I am getting confused and mac is an abbreviation of Macintosh.
