PCAUSA Background
Printing Communications Associates, Inc. (PCA or PCAUSA) is a
software development and consulting company founded in 1988 by Thomas F. Divine, and
incorporated in the State of Georgia in July of 1992.
PCAUSA's initial development focus was on providing AppleTalk
network solutions on non-AppleTalk platforms, including DOS and Windows workstations and
PostScript print servers.
In 1996 PCAUSA began a transition from consulting to
licensing of specialized network development toolkits for the Microsoft Windows platforms.
PCAUSA's RAWETHER was introduced in June of 1996, and has been
successfully used by many companies as a starting point for development of Network
Analyzer products.
The follow-on to RAWETHER is the PCAUSA Win32 NDIS Framework (WinDis 32),
introduced in July of 1997. The name "WinDis" is intended to suggest,
somewhat obscurely, both Windows ("Win") and NDIS ("nDis").
We pronounce it "Win-Dis".
With the introduction of the RAWETHER.NET website PCAUSA will begin using the
original RAWETHER product name to refer to the Win32 NDIS Framework.
PCAUSA continues to expand and enhance its product offerings
in the area of specialized network software development toolkits for the Microsoft Windows
platforms. These include:
