- LANtastic(tm) NOS COMPATIBILITY LIST 05/22/90
-
- The following list of hardware and software has been verified
- compatible with the LANtastic Network Operating System by either the
- manufacturer, Artisoft, Inc., Artisoft Resellers or Artisoft
- Distributors. This list will be updated frequently. Don't despair
- if your favorite product does not appear; software that has been
- tested with IBM PC LAN will in most cases be compatible with
- LANtastic NOS. However, this is the current list that Artisoft uses
- for questions about compatibility. Many programs listed below are
- single user packages only. Consult the manufacturer for any special
- instructions for using their single user packages in a network
- environment as you could be violating your license agreement. In
- network packages where you must choose the type of network you are
- using, choose IBM PC LAN if an option for LANtastic is not listed.
- One final note; although many programming utilities (including
- database applications) may appear on the compatibility list, Artisoft
- can not be held responsible for the compatibility, nor the support
- of, the actual code due to variations in programming structures.
