| ActiveState |
The best WinNT Perl |
Don't use the perl.exe that comes with the resource kit, it crashes all the time and leaves subliminal images on your screen that say "use vb instead"

| JP Software |
Replacement cmd.exe Shell |
Probably the only company that has built a shell for Windows/DOS users ... not for Unix hacks.

| IBM+PSX |
Good Web Server |
Sick of juggling ASP objects and wizards? IBM offers a blazingly fast and secure server. PSX is terse & simple embedded macro language. (Backward compatible with ifact.com's CBuilder)

| U.S. Patent Office |
Free Patent Search |
Did you ever think "I bet I could patent that...". A patent search is no longer an expensive and time-consuming process.

| Neural Network @ Cape Canaveral |
Fun Weekend |
Download and compile some neural network code. Then watch it predict future sunspot activity! Can you think of a better way to spend the weekend?

| Connected |
Internet Protocol Reference |
The fastest U.S. mirror site for "Connected" that I've seen.

| Shareware.COM |
Tools & Utilites |
One of best places to find innovative software products. But you knew that.

| MS Support |
Good Knowledge Base Search |
Finally an MS site that stays up for an hour or so at a time! Think they're using Apache or CBuilder? Here's my favorite
support solution (in response to a ug in XL).

| WinAMP |
Good MP3 Player |
If you haven't heard the sound quality that the MP3 format offers...you should.
It's a viable mechanism for selling music on the web, tuning a PC into an audio center, etc.
After that you can
read a couple of articles on why the
RIAA will restrict
your ability to use it!
