Paul S. << At 2400 baud it takes many hours, then you get charged $10, I think…>> Going by the sheer volume of D "verbose-r-us" G's posts, I think its safe to assume he's not communicating at 2400 baud. When I downloaded WinCIM 1.3, it was two disks, took maybe 5-10 minutes at 9600 (just a guess??), and my CI$ account was credited $10 which put the cost at $0 (excluding connect charges during downloading). I use it exclusively for CI$, and have no complaints with it. FWIW, I tried OzCIS (DOS version) for awhile, but found the pull-down menus and pretty pitchurs on the little buttons in WinCIM made CI$ more fun and much easier to use.
