Artisoft these days because their customer support sucks, their software

Bingo....couldn't put it better myself. I used to love Artisoft networking until
they got so big for their britches that they think just because big business
blindly buys from them that they can treat their customers any way they feel.
I sold Lantastic for many years, I really loved their products in the early
90's..They had great support back then for Technicians like myself and end users.
However after Windows 95 came out it put them into a real financial bind.
They laid off many of their support staff. It seemed worthless to buy their
network software when all it did was Overlay Windows 95 network interface,
With the exception of support to older DOS machine on a windows 95 network.
I at one time had over 50 Lantastic systems in the field that I supported,
now most all are converted to Windows 95 based peer to peer networks..
Another Good company going under because of MicroSoft's strong marketing.
