Hi Steve,
How I am going to rely on Win 95 or 98 when the system fails during Gate's
demos. I would like to know if the navegation software are running on Work
Station or Win 2000 professional.
Try to send a email through Eudora or other program and be in the MS Message
service at the same time!!! Kabumm crush for sure.
I like to know if any in the group was running the chart plotting system and
receiving weather fax at the same time. That would be a good test.
Cheers
Arthur
