I purchased the "Desk Set", which includes everything except modem communications. I bought directly from them (payed $5 s+h) and received the package via UPS in about a week. I unpacked the box yesterday and tried them today. Things seem to work pretty much as advertised, although I haven't given them a full test by any means. I called their tech support hotline with a couple of questions (I called them before buying, as well.) and got friendly response and helpful answers. I found out that a new version came out something like two days after mine was shipped, that the normal upgrade cost is $20 (original price was about $70), but they're giving me a deal since they came out with a new version before I even got their shipment. They said that the main difference in the new version is that Note and Clip have been combined into Word, which is really snazzy. I can hardly wait to see. Anyway, they seem to work on the AT&T PC 6300. I can't say anything for 6300-compatibles. -- Ron Heiby (NAC|ihnp4!cuae2!heiby) Moderator: mod.newprod, mod.unix AT&T-IS, /app/eng, Lisle, IL (312) 810-6109
