- I am using Mach386 2.6MSD on Morse 386/33 and my experiences with it are only
- very positive, but..
-
- It is true that mtXinu has their good NNTPSERVER which offers you good hints
- and discussion about Mach386, but you still cannot get updates mentioned in
- mach386.updates WITHOUT buying the expensive AutoSupport.
-
- That is only thing I have to complain about mtXinu, I think that when you
- buy product, you should have the best possible product. If it isn't as good
- as it should be (it has bugs) then you should get fixes to make it good.
- I mean, there is no buglist in advertisements so you should get a bug-free
- product too. Add-in packages are different, of course you have to pay
- for them, but you should get bug fixes for free.
-
- Otherwise mtXinu has been very helpful - they helped me to solve my problem
- with serial ports (and they really knew their product) and they also sent
- me new filesystem replacement for free when I managed to break mine.

- PS. If anyone knows how does one get on mach386 mailing list, please let me
- know!
