Wine calculator:

What is the formula for calculating the pours? Two drinks for the first hour? Ten percent overage?
Two Pour Options:

Base Pour: We calculate our pours at one drink per person per hour. As the event planner, we believe this gives you the foundation to plan an event to suit your specific needs.

Standard Pour:Two drinks for the first hour, one drink thereafter.

Spirits calculator:

Why do professionals use the liter size?
A liter bottle fits the speed rail. It's kind of like Goldilocks, it's not too big, or too small, it's just right.
Imagine a bartender at a nightclub lifting the 1.75L jug all night. Imagine what the bartending contests would look like! Ouch!

What is this .NET?
It is the platform, Microsoft uses to enhance applications run on its operating systems. I recently loaded up my laptop, and it was included with the security updates. Odds are if you update regularly, you already have it.

If not, let the software connect you to the Microsoft website for a free download.

When are you making a version for MAC?
Slow down. That's like asking a person who just learned to speak French, when are they going to learn Spanish. We've got ipods, and nothing but love for Apple. Actually, we have a cool surprise for Apple lovers that we're working on.

.NET is the engine that runs the program. Basically, .NET is the reason why the
programs aren't in black and grey, and why they look like something you want to use.

Microsoft has added .NET patches to its security updates. If you update regularly, you should
have this free update, if not, allow the software to connect you to the Microsoft website for free.
