I used MKS on a project for a year. It intergrates well in the File Manager in WIn 3.11 and also fits itself into the Visual C++ (1.5), Borland C++(4.5) and Visual basic (3.0) IDE very well. I does need a bit of fiddling with the configuration files from soemone whose knows what they are doing but once it's installed even PC developers, who dont't even know what source code control is, can use it quite easily. I don't know if there is a 32 bit version yet. For Unix types it also has a command line mode which is very similar to the standard RCS. I liked it and would recommend it.
