- I think it would be great Public Relations for CMS if they were to make it
- free. Buck the trend of 'everything has a price'
- Personally, the only reason I would even consider using their software in
- the first place is that my prefered backup program (Norton Backup 2.x)
- doesn't handled HPFS or EA's
- This would be a great way for them to get 'us' back into their fold.
- That is, of course if they really care. I've heard references to the
- effect that the only reason software is included is because it 'has' to
- be included.. no one would buy a 'bare' drive.
-
- Oh well, Do you know the expected price of the upgrade and perhaps
- a few phone numbers (bbs, fax, and voice), and/or addresses which
- I can start working on.
- I don't currently have any of the CMS stock software installed, and it wouldn't
- be very easy for me to get it (its in a different location).
- Any help is appreciated.
