   Another hot news flash... In talking with one of the key players at
   Microtest, I found out that a new version of their LANPORT will be
   released (most likely within a month... can you say NetWorld, Boston
   boys and girls).

   Anyway, the current release requires that you also purchase and install
   LAN Systems LANSpool.  The new version, dubbed "printer in a box", requires
   nothing special  It will work directly with the NetWare print queues.

   We will be pruchasing quite a few of these new babies, so expect a status
   report as soon as I can get my hands on one.

   By the way, the technical support and service given by the Microtest people
   are first rate.  Their Microtest Scanner is a real winner and so is LANPORT.
   It will be even better with the new release.
