Well I've been using NPFPRS continuously for many years.
As far as I'm concerned it's the best PMS program. It's very stable and
does everything that I want it to do.
It runs in DOS , or in a DOS box under windows.
It does require a front-end node (BPQ) but that's an advantage as far as I'm
concerned. It properly integrates into the whole Packet Network, just like
a BBS does - that's something Winpack could never do properly.
A true successor to NPFPMS is SALLY , which is a true windows program.
I have registered copies of both NPFPMS and SALLY, but I prefer NPFPMS.
73, Pete G6KUI
