Hi:

I have another question that I hope someone else has experienced.  We have some 
PC's (not many) that have token-ring cards, and get their ethernet connection 
via some warped means that utilizes the token-ring card.

When I try to run NUPop 2.0.2, I get a "not enough memory to create Composer, 
aborting NUPop" message.  This machine has only 1MB of memory, and I expect 
that should be the reason why memory is short in supply..  However, it does 
have 557K of conventional memory available when I start NUPop.

I tried installing NUPop 1.0.3, and it complains that the network packet driver 
isn't installed.  I can use Telnet, though, so I don't see how that can be the 
case.  Does anyone have any advice on using NUPop on a machine which has a 
token-ring card?  Please e-mail me directly, and I'll summarize after awhile.

Thanks so much.

Chuck :-)
