It better - according to the Sears book - that's how all the software gets sold...... :-( A few months ago - someone yelled "Yippee! 500's are going to be sold by Sears"... I mentioned at that time that this would be a two edged sword... Most of the Sears personnel I have met have very little knowledge of computers in general ("It sells just like a stereo - right? same commission?" :-^ ) Well - it seems that right out of the chute - they've already blown it. :Richard E.
