[] The PSPICE Demo Distribution from MicroSim has been posted in comp.binaries.ibm.pc. It is a 14 part (!) UUencoded ARC file.

Dear NetLanders, Why would anybody post a huge Demo program to a newsgroup that is distributed all over the world. I know that usually companies pay a lot of money for these ads, most will mail you a free disk, and these people are getting this free ride. Well, is not really free because others are paying it. Let's not jam the Net with these things it is already experiencing a high traffic. I don't think posing any demo is beneficial except for the company. -Abdullah

Thank you for that information----but while you were at it, with such a massive posting--couldn't you have told us what this is? Forrest Gehrke

PSPICE is a commercial circuit simulator, one of the may spinoffs (derivatives) of the UC Berkeley's Spice circuit simulator. The actual product PSPICE is of course proprietary, but I'm sure MicroSim would love to see their demo program distributed as widely as possible. There was a brief discussion about PSPICE on sci.electronics, but I suppose Chris simply forgot that the IBM PC readers don't all read the other group. -- George J Wu UUCP: {ihnp4,ulysses,cbosgd,allegra}!clyde!gwu ARPA: gwu%clyde.att.com@rutgers.edu or gwu@faraday.ece.cmu.edu
