Hi,
just took a look at raqport.com and was interested in the software - correct me if I am wrong but ( and normal are )
http://www.raqport.com/store/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=R&Category_Code=RaQ4soft
here you find all sorts of software for the RaQ4's most of it is also available a pkgmaster but
two products that look good are AV Suite for RaQ3/4 & Spam Filter Cobalt RaQ4 but it make me wonder if the price is correct as they
sell Webalizer for 150$ and its a free product anyway as well as PHP and MySql
Has anyone put the spam and virus software on the box and if so was it any good - or are they better products out there cheaper ?
All the Best
Andrew

If you intend to turn a Raq3i into a Raq4r before you buy make sure it has
two IDE cables. We just bought a Raq3i
thinking it had two IDE cables and it did not.
