- ARTISOFT'S LANTASTIC(R) FOR WINDOWS(TM) NETWORK UTILITY NOW
- SHIPPING
-
- Features Icons, Pull-Down Menus and DDE for LANtastic Local
- Area Network
-
-
- (TUCSON, Ariz.--September 30, 1991)-- Artisoft announced
-
- today that it has begun shipping its new LANtastic for
-
- Windows network utility which allows the LANtastic network to
-
- be run totally from within Microsoft(R) Windows(TM) 3.0.
-
- Priced at $299 per network, it requires LANtastic(R) NOS 4.0
-
- or higher(sold separately) to operate.
-
- "LANtastic(R) for Windows(TM) was designed for those
-
- LANtastic users who prefer the Windows interface and
-
- operating environment," said Jack Schoof, Artisoft President
-
- and CEO.
-
- The LANtastic(R) for Windows(TM) network utility offers
-
- the same features as the DOS-versions NET and NET_MGR
-
- programs, but within the easy, graphical user interface of
-
- Microsoft Windows' pull-down menus, icons and on-line help.
-
- It also supports Dynamic Data Exchange(DDE) so that Windows
-
- applications can use LANtastic e-mail to exchange messages
-
- and transfer data. For Example, with DDE, a user can create
-
- an Excel spreadsheet and send it ot a remote user who will
-
- then be able to double-click on the file to open it in the
-
- application in which it was originally created.
-
- Artisoft develops and manufactures a full line of
-
- hardware and software for local area networks including the
-
- LANtastic Local Area Network. The LANtastic network is a
-
- peer-to-peer network that allows users of IBM-compatible
-
- computers to connect and share information and peripheral
-
- devices such as printers, hard drives and CD-ROMs.
