MAS90 4.4
Well MAS90 4.4 is out (and it includes the new Crystal Reports – I’m a dork and love Crystal sorry). MAS90 4.4 is a parallel install and while the process is MUCH cleaner than previous parallel installs, I still do not like it. The old way was install on top of, convert the files, and [...]
