VISTA3270 at $30 per copy is the best I have used. There is no yearly maintenance fee, but you can always get the latest version. Also Tom is quick to respond to any problems discovered.
My evaluation of 'best' is based on what it does, not the price. I have used three other emulators, none of which were as good as Vista3270 ________________________________ Christopher Y.

This new package comes with two pretty hefty price tags: approximately $1,000 purchase price per PC and approximately $250 per PC per year license fees. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
