General Notes

All software titles produced by Fine Particle Software use a colour graphics screen (VGA / SVGA).

Any screen can be printed or copied into the stack with the PRINT SCREEN key and subsequently pasted into other software.

Finally, all our programs incorporate error protection against things like using print command with no printer connected or switched on.

Computer-Aided Design of Separator Networks requires VGA or SVGA capability and a pointing device (usually a mouse). A more powerful processor (80486 or better) is recommended.
