I also noted that the only way to get the updates on disk was on Macintosh disks. I think this is STUPID (Hear that Apple?). I don't own a mac, and I don't plan to. I DO have access to one, but not forever...However, they may have meant 3.5 inch disks. Even so, how hard would it be to put them on 5.25 inch disks? I guess Dos 3.3 is too much to ask for :-) ________________________________________________________________________________ Sean Kamath UUCP: {masscomp, decvax, allegra, psu-cs, ucbcad, ucbvax, purdue, hplabs, hp-pcd, sequent, uw-beaver, ihnp4, cbosgd, gatech, nsc-pdc}!tektronix!reed!kamath CSNET: reed!kamath@Tektronix.CSNET BITNET: reed!kamath@Berkeley.BITNET ARPA: tektronix!reed!kamath@Berkeley reed!kamath@hplabs DECNET: RHEA::DECWRL::"decvax!tektronix!reed!kamath" US Snail: Box 395 Reed College, Portland, OR 97202 (503) 239-7458 These are not the fastest or best paths, just the easiest to use.
