<<I was informed by another reader and just verified for myself that
Reflection 1 for Windows95/NT is currently (and possibly always has
been?) shipping with a RNNSVTX.DLL.  To my knowledge this is not true of
Win3.1, but if anyone can dispute either opinion, please speak up.

This is quite a change on WRQ's part...>>

It's maximally confusing; if you want Reflection 1 for the HP, and want
to use VT, don't ask for "Reflection 1". Instead, the product is called
"Reflection for HP with NS/VT". To further confuse things, when you open
the Help.About box of said product, it proudly announces that it is
"Reflection 1 for Windows 95".

However, this only happened at version 5.0 (or maybe even 5.1); before
that, you had to get the Reflection 1 product plus either the "NS Open/NS
Connection" or the "3000 Connection" piece, to get a workable VT client.
And you're right that the "VT in the box" product is only available in
32-bit; the 16-bit version requires additional software to "do" VT: 3000
Connection, NS/Open, or even the old 3Com/HP ARPA Services stuff (I think
that still works).
