Glad to see Coherent mentioned here, as I would like to learn something
about it.  I just saw the ad in PC Mag (9/11 issue).  This is a $99.95
piece of software that compares itself to a product that costs $1,495.

Same issue of PC Mag has an article about disk partitions, and mentions that
some XENIX-type operating systems can cause serious damage to users of DOS
4.01 (that's me) by writing bad info to the partition table, or the FAT, or
something like that.  Does Coherent cause this problem?

The ad mentioned that Coherent users will be able to access news and software
via UUCP.  Does anyone know how that works?
