Hi Janis,

JK>I do remember hearing how expensive it was, but I'm pretty sure two
JK>individuals here in the states did purchase it.

Apparently they have not been able to convert their investment to
something profitable.

JK>Hmmm.. ok, I thought there were bug fixes for those? (even handler
JK>bug, etc.)

AFAIK the bugfixes were in v15.4 beta of which I have two versions.

The most aggravating bug was that v15.23 and v15.3 did send replies
from areafix as attachments which didn't conform with Fido procedures
and as such didn't show up on all systems.  V15.4 reverted back to
sending them as .MSG's

Also, all versions of PCBoard require changes with a hex editor in
PCBOARD?.EXE (to run events in the new millenium) and in PCBSETUP.EXE
(to show correct weekdays in the event listing).

There's also a patch to be made to v15.4 beta that removes the date
that the beta expires.

Have a nice day,

Holger
