We just received 3Com's "3+" version 1.1 software, which includes a software
fix that allows the Shift-PrtSc to work. I installed this Wednesday and it
appears to work as advertised. By the way, the 1.1 software and installation
procedure is about a magnitude more comprehensive than the old 1.0 software,
which was like a trip through a fun-house, complete with 180 degree errors
in the manuals, missing procedure steps, and incomplete explantions of error
codes. Worst of all, 3COM doesn't want to talk to you unless you have a
multi-million dollar developer's agreement with them. Ok, so maybe I used
a blown-up figure there. It is actually only a few thousand.
