This firm currently has a US bulletin board, when a customer has a problem, the support people usually tell the customer to dial up their BBS and download some code. They can of course have the European customer dial the US and download, but costs are high. Does anyone know of a commercial European BBS system to accomodate my friend's firm? (Surface mail is a poor solution because the time to get thru customs is one week minimum.) Idealy he would dial up every so often and upload new code. But he could also ship diskettes to Europe for the BBS people to post for him. Thanks, Richard Marks rmarks@KSP.unisys.COM or Robert Trout Device Network Associates 215-296-7420
