I haven't tried it, but the Pro version CD looks like a bargain. Lot of features, supports a lot of different hardware through driver support. At least, if you're used to idea of paying for internet setup costs. Prestel was nothing like this.
It might be clunky to set up, and very fiddly to get a working config, but at least you can do it with a LOT of different network hardware. Not for free, but I say that seems pretty good value.
You could do the same thing for "free" by carefully collecting the drivers and writing your own front end, or even writing your own scripts by typng them, but it would take a lot longer than paying the money. Depends what your times worth.
I guess the same thing goes for Roadshow, except that it is not such a navigation hazard, and pretty much gets you online quicker. That's why people like Roadshow. EasyNet can work, but it is more work.
You can pretty much hack all kinds of weird and wonderful Amiga network connections, these days. The PCMCIA Amigas have it a lot easier, but... well, I've said enough, still got a LOT to do.
Been going online since 83. Never really got it mastered, to be honest, in terms of Capn Crunchin' it and getting everywhere and everything for free. That's not my idea of reasonable.
I'm plain honest. Stupid, on occasion, but there you go.
