Ross,
If ver. 4.0 is a dos program and I believe it is (getting my Elite delivered
in December) then why not use Lantastic under dos for networking? Getting a
dos program to run under Windows is mostly an advertising hype. The problems
usually override the benefits.
I hear that Coulter is working on a Windows upgrade; can you query Peter Gromm
to find out when it will be released?

Jim.
