CCA emacs is known to make much more efficient use of resources than Gosling's, as well as being more true to the emacs philosophy. NOW, if only CCA would get around to sending me my copies. Every couple of weeks I call them, they apologize profusely for not having sent it yet, and say it'll be shipped the next morning. Last wednesday, the person I spoke to said they would ship it Federal Express, and that I should receive it Friday. Still it hasn't arrived. I'll give them another call this Wednesday. The reason they hadn't shipped, they said, was that they were waiting for a new shipment of manuals from the printer. However, they also stated that they would send the tape without the manuals, which they would send me later. -- Michael A.
