Your information is out of date. Several posters in comp.windows.ms as well as Steve Gibson, InfoWorld columnist, have already received QEMM 5.1, with Enhanced mode compability, and report excellent results. -- Phil Ngai, phil@amd.com {uunet,decwrl,ucbvax}!amdcad!phil "Why would Xerox Corp. want a paperless office?"
