- This is a brief blurb about the main product Software Concept Design
- derives income from. This is a blatant commercial announcement and we
- have no excuses for it! We have kept it short, though, with the full text
- available on the RamNet BBS at (212)-889-6438. Or, we can send you more
- information if you check off the box on the registration form. On with
- the show!

- What is RamNet?
- ===============
-
- RamNet is a background, memory resident program which enables you to:
-
- * Run your own Bulletin Board System -- in the background!
- * Have Electronic Mail (E-Mail) across the nation or across the globe
- today....with no hardware other than your PC and modem!
- * Do file transfers (both upload and download) totally in the
- background, so you can continue your normal processing tasks in the
- foreground.
- * Run SCRIPT files that allow you to upload and download to any other
- computer system.
- * Utilize RamNet as a "normal" communications package via a user-
- selectable Hot-Key. Start transfers in the foreground and switch
- them to the background -- only a keystroke away! The transfer
- continues while you work on something else.
- * Incoming E-Mail may be immediately printed if you desire. You'll be
- notified, in any case, when mail has arrived.
- * RamNet uses the XMODEM protocol for error free file transfer. Both
- Checksum (with about 99% error detection) and CRC (with at least
- 99.9% error detection) have been implemented.
- * UUCP, the protocol of choice between UNIX sites is now available
- between RamNet sites as well. Your RamNet site will appear as a UUCP
- allowing file transfers to take place between UNIX systems and your
- PC in "native" mode. You can send and receive UNIX mail to and from
- your PC -- in the between UNIX systems and your PC in "native" mode.
- You can send and receive UNIX mail to and from your PC -- in the
- background! A free update to handle UNIX News is in the works, too!
- * Now your PC can act as a Telex machine, too! Your incoming telex
- messages are stored and/or printed without requiring an expensive
- dedicated machine.
- * Use RamNet as a Source Librarian! You can specify a given download
- directory as a "locked directory". Files which are downloaded are
- "locked" from future downloads until released.
- * Wildcard Transfers via a special Batch file allow you to customize
- which files you wish to transfer in one shot.
- * The following Baudrates are supported: 110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400,
- 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400.
- * Easily works with any modem, intelligent switch, or direct, hardwire
- connection.
-
- With RamNet you won't have to schedule your time with the person at the
- other end: if they're running RamNet, they'll just continue with their
- work as you continue with yours.
-
- RamNet retails for only $149, and we offer a full money back guarantee.
- No questions asked. You can't lose!
