I think that it was very nice of Datastorm to provide us with a test version of procomm+. Here's what I want to know.... What happens now? What is missing? Let me elaborate. Does this program stop working after 6 times or something like that? Does it slow down? Maybe some of the functions don't work? Does anyone have the answer? I have used the program once and I would like to know how long I will have it. I know that there is a message screen that says that the program is for evaluation only but does anything happen? I don't want to put this program on my 'real' disks if it is not going to be around for much longer. -- |o| Jonathan Joshua jjoshua@topaz.rutgers.edu CCIS Operator |o| |o| |o| |o| See that tape mount? |o| |o| It's got your name written all over it! |o|

The only difference between the Test Drive version and the "real thing" is the opening screen and the absence of the keyboard remapping utility. Test Drive does not stop working or slow down, etc. HOWEVER, you're not supposed to put this program on your "real" disks -- you're supposed to "test drive" it for a short period, and then purchase the commercial version for ca. $75 to put on your "real" disks :-) ... -- Wolf N.

Well, from what I can tell, It doesn't have a manual and It doesn't support the redefinition of keys, both of which are available with the real version. As for when/if the program does something like the tapes on Mission-Impossible, I just don't know, although from the wording in one of the files, I suppose the program does not expire. ============================================================================== | Mark Schaffer | BITNET: 164485913@vuvaxcom | | Villanova University | UUCP: ...{ihnp4!psuvax1,burdvax,cbmvax,pyrnj,bpa} | | (Go Wildcats!) | !vu-vlsi!excalibur!164485913 | ============================================================================== please respond/reply to the above addresses and not to guest@vu-vlsi.UUCP
