Really?  So far with 6 computers I am unable to get the Ecom station installed.  In fact I have only 
been able to get it on one computer without reverting to the 2nd diskette which has the old IBM 
install.  That one works fine and does not put in all the silly window dressing that the ECS puts in.

ECS is worth the money but only because it has the old reliable install from IBM. If they only had 
the ECS install over half the attempts to install would fail.
