I heard that this new program was to cover the lower-end consumer products, meaning the C64, 1541/1581 Disk Drives, the Amiga 500 and A1011 Disk. This was NOT goint to cover the 2000-3000 range of machines as they are designed for user installation of cards. (Even the new 3000 manual goes through extra hard disk/ram installation procedures). Perhaps someone official can clear this up once and for-all before the &*#*$& starts flying. I'll try and get the official notification that was sent in the meantime. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Fisk - level10!dfisk@ssi3b1.zone1.com dfisk@level10.UUCP ...{mit-eddie,pyramid,datacube}!mirror!ssi3b1!level10!dfisk Anyone looking for a AmigaDOS or Unix C Programmer
