RMP: From Pivotal Presence in Publishing Industry to The
Ever Expanding World of Software and Computers
Dick Pino, an established trade journalist, editor and production director
left behind a successful career in publishing to form RMP Communications Inc. in 1980, opening a computer-based typesetting and
printing production facility in Long Island, New York, offering
state-of-the-art digital type output and graphic art services via telecommunications well before anyone knew the meaning of "clip
art" or the "information highway."
Focus on and deployment of the latest technology was paramount to RMP sustaining a continued, successful presence
in an ever changing typesetting and printing industry.
A new market had arose dominated at the time by Radio Shack's TRS-80 and IBM's PC (personal computer) which
would eventually open up corridors to cost effective,
mass produced computers that publishing companies and ad agencies could use in house, many of which would
no longer require the services of facilities like RMP.
RMP met this new challenge, building and selling its own custom, personal computers for
home and business, and continued to offer its other services as well.
By 1996 RMP was shipping custom PCs nationwide, bundled business management software.
Millie the Landscaper's Assitant® software in the ensuing years
was greatly enhanced and expanded to RMP's packaged LANDsuite Professional® software
encompasing an amazing client database and accounting
program called Accountrix5® bundled together with
its ImageScapes® PhotoRealistic® landscape imaging program.
