	Presto History
		PRESTO Recording Corporation was a power-house company in the broadcast and recording industry, and most radio stations and networks that made use of disc recorders for delayed broadcast, or air checks, etc., were users of PRESTO EQUIPMENT.
		PRESTO RECORDING CORPORATION was organized in 1933 and incorporated in New York State in March of 1934 by Morris Gruber, George Saliba, Aaron Benjamin, and Mr.
		PRESTO was one of three companies to have developed versions of this disc - the others were in France and England - and the PRESTO version was introduced to the US in the fall of 1934, after several years of experimentation.

		Presto Studios also tried to make the puzzles friendly, and so all the objects required for a puzzle will usually be near the puzzle, and if you operate some piece of machinery, you'll get to see the result nearby (usually in the same room).
		Presto Studios made up for the friendliness of the puzzles by not giving much in the way of hints for how they should be solved, and so most will require quite a bit of trial and error before you can complete them.
		Presto Studios also did a good job of integrating the full motion video sequences into the world, so that sometimes you can even move the camera around while the sequences are playing out.

	CNN - Beneath's fortunes are rising - November 4, 1998
		In Beneath, Presto (of Journeyman Project fame) is convinced that Tomb Raider opened a door for third-person adventures, but the earlier game relied upon its good looks and lacked easy input control and depth of story telling.
		So Presto set off to build a game around Jack, a turn-of-the-century (19th/20th) adventurer out to track down his missing father whose expedition to the pole has gone terribly wrong.
		Presto still hasn't put many adversaries into the game, but at least we got to play with some early giant spiders and earwicks.
