    Moose> I have the following questions regarding Executor :

    Moose>   - Will Executor for Windows 3.x/95/NT be coded ?

Yes, it will be very high priority after Executor 2 is shipping.  In
the meantime, Executor/DOS does run under Windows 3.x and Windows '95.
We're looking into fixing a bug that currently prevents Executor/DOS
from running under Windows NT and hope to have a fix out before
Executor 2 is released.

    Moose>   - When will it arrive ?

I would *guess* it will be available in an experimental form sometime
in March or April.

    Moose>   - With the registered version of Executor, can I use the
    Moose> Network (via the Ethernet Card on my PC) ?

You can access networked DOS drives, but that's about it.  Better
networking support will be added after Executor 2 ships.  In general,
if the demo version can't do it, the non-demo version can't, either,
since the point of the demo is to show people both what Executor can
do and what it *can't*.

    Moose>   - With the registered version of Executor, can I use the
    Moose> Fax / Modem connected to my PC ?

No, again, that's a post-Executor 2 feature.

    Moose>   - Is there a list of programmes that Executor is
    Moose> compatible with.?

ftp://ftp.ardi.com/pub/AppNotes has some information.  We'll be
greatly expanding that list when we Executor 2 goes beta.

    Moose>   - How much does Executor cost ?

$49 for students and faculty and staff of educational institutions,
$99 for everyone else, at least until Executor 2 goes beta.  At that
point the price goes up.  Pre-beta purchasers will get Executor 2 for
free when it is ready.

    Moose>   - How much will future upgrades of the product cost ?

Not decided yet, but our history should show that we treat our
existing customers very well (Executor 1.0 purchasers are getting
Executor 2 for free, even though Executor 1.0 originally was to
require a $59 upgrade to Executor 2).
