What is MicroPhone II?

With MicroPhone II, Software Ventures has iced an already-rich cake. The latest MicroPhone builds on its predecessor’s strengths, which include a powerful script language for automating communications sessions, strong file-transfer features, and VT100/VT52 terminal emulation (see “Grab That Microphone,” Macworld, July 1986). And yes, MicroPhone II takes advantage of MultiFinder, so time-consuming operations such as uploading or downloading files can run in the background.

But MicroPhone II doesn’t have a monopoly on MultiFinder. Its two chief rivals — Hayes’ SmartCom II and FreeSoft’s Red Ryder — also support background operations. Whether you choose MicroPhone II or one of its competitors depends on your needs — and on how tolerant you are of MicroPhone II's deficiencies.
