Etc.

Gary, you can call me just plain silly, but I am going by the "Official"
version label in the software itself. (see Max version number at the bottom
of this message) that came with version 3.01 of Maximus/NT. Note from the
tearline, that It says "Maximus/NT 3.01b", -not- Maximus Win32 or Maximus 95.
All I did was point that out to someone who called it "Maximus 95", when it
is indeed called by the author "Maximus/NT". There is no "Maximus 95", even
though "Maximus/NT" will run in Win95 (but with serious to a fidonet BBS
limitations that it doesn't have in NT).
From documentation or perhaps something I read in this conference from Scott,
I don't believe he is or perhaps was ever too hot to trot and/or frustrated
in working with a 32 bit version of Max for Windows 95. Evidently his
enthusiasm, like mine, was greatly jaded by W95's gross inability to pass a
hot comport off from one 32 bit app to another and perhaps also, 95's *much*
weaker than NT's multitasking ability, hence the moniker Maximus/NT. Call it
a freudian slip on Scott's part or what ever else you want to, the Win32
version of Maximus is indeed called Maximus/NT. All I pointed out at the
beginning of this long and silly thread to a guy was that it there was not a
"Maximus 95" as he called it, it was called (by the author of the program)
Maximus/NT and you took off on this inane thread from there ....but hey,
it made one of us go back and look at the doc's.
--- Maximus/NT 3.01b1
