Documentation:
              The Netsoft LAN User's Guide is about 340 Pages. It's of
              the highest quality and is available on-line and in
              download-able formats (HP LaserJet and PostScript).

              Our "On-line Search Engine" allows you to search the
              entire User's Guide and On-line documentation from
              the WWW.

              For the most part, NetSoft LAN is self-documenting.

History     : Development of NetSoft LAN was started in 1989, as a
              true MS-NET and IBM PC LAN compatible network operating
              system for DOS, Windows and Desqview.

              The development has continued full-time for the past
seven
              years and continues to do so.

              NetSoft LAN is 100% Winnet Compatible, which means
Windows
              Based PC's can take directly to DOS based PC's etc.

              NetSoft LAN is Desqview and QEMM aware and compatible.

              The software has been tested extensively on all hardware
              from the original IBM PC with 256k RAM to the latest
              Pentium based machines.

              It's compatible with all known Ethernet Cards and Arcnet
              Cards.

              The Installation includes support directly for more than
              125 Ethernet Cards and over 450 Modems
              (for Wide Area Networking)

              May also be installed as a secondary network OS, if you
              also require another network system.

              One of our primary goals was to make the installation as
              easy and simple as possible.

              1. There are NO command line parameters.
              2. There are NO CONFIG.SYS parameters or drivers.
              3. There are NO AUTOEXEC.BAT parameters.

              All network configuration parameters are stored in a
              single ASCII test file.

              NetSoft LAN includes a complete "Network Set-up Program"
              that allows complete configuration without having to
edit
              and files manually on your system.

              All the NetSoft LAN program files are self-aware and
              cannot be infected by any virus.

Features    : Includes everything and more than you'd expect from a
              product of this type. There are too many features to
              mention here.

Tech Support: Technical Support is available free of charge via Phone,

              and email (support at netsoft.ie).
