Evidence of overlacquered hammers

[Bernhard Stopper]

Ron,
the .Net package is a new programming standard that simplifies software
developers to embed their products also in web based applications.
Installing the .Net package makes the programs developped with the latest
Microsoft Visual Studio readable for pre-XP Windows versions.  The Net
package itself does not make automatic connection to the net. (Mensurix 5
also makes no automatic connection to the net) But XP does, when using it
with the standard settings.

regards,
Bernhard
