PERFORMANCE NOTICE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SimpliTake has been tested and functions on systems meeting the Minimum
Supported Configuration. However, performance (particularly project load times
and page switching) on complex construction drawings with hundreds of takeoffs
and markups will be significantly better on the Recommended Configuration.
SimpliTake does not require a dedicated graphics card.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OFFLINE OPERATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After activation, SimpliTake is designed to run FULLY OFFLINE. The Software itself never contacts any server or service at any time. No ongoing internet connection, online account, or cloud service is required to open projects or perform takeoffs. Each project is stored as a single, self-contained .simplitake file on Your own storage.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meeting these requirements does not guarantee any particular result. SimpliTake
is a measurement tool only; all measurements must be independently verified and
physically confirmed before use (see User Agreement Sections 8-10).
