- NOTES ABOUT OTHER VERSIONS
- ==========================
-
- * A DOS Version is available under the name "EAZY341.ZIP" which can be
- found on the internet at the Simtel archives (look on archie.au, etc).
-
- * No Windows Version is planned as it cannot provide some of the features
- and stability that OS/2 can. However I am flexible and will consider any
- viable options.
-
- Thankyou for trying out Inspire Remora and we are looking forward for your
- registration.
