PowerTech Client Management Software

[Greg Newell]

Patrick,
    Great! I'm glad you have something you're comfortable with. Can you describe
in detail some of it's functions for us? Is he making it available to those who
may wish to purchase? How willing is he to stand behind it? Is he open to making
requested changes in a possible upgrade type of scenario? Does it require an
unlock code or password or dongle or the like? Thanks for taking the time top
write!

Greg
