If now my only choice is to buy the whole thing again then I'm not going to do it. Apple gets no money. If the upgrade policy is still in force when I can afford or have a real need then I will pay for it Apple gets lots of money. xx% of something is better than 100% of nothing. P.S. MacTech Quarterly is selling TML Pascal II ver3.0 with mpw 3.0 for a hundred bucks. -- ___________________________________________________________ Matthew Mora SRI International mxmora@unix.sri.com ___________________________________________________________
