[UniMacTech] Opinions on Casper Suite

[Chris Lang]

Hi Carrie,

I am currently in the middle of an eval of Casper Suite Version 6 and must
admit I am pretty happy with it thus far.

Not much presence in Australia at the moment but the email support from the
US has been good thus far.

Packaging is quite good and as to bugs havent had any major issues with this
version myself.

If you want any more info drop me an email.

Regards,

Chris
