	Features? You want it, it does it.
	Maple V isn't out yet, and is predicted as coming out
1Q91. Currently there is 4.2. The cost is $400 for the first and
$100 per additional site license (until you hit 21 or so sites,
then it gets cheaper). The additional licenses do not include
manuals. Extra manuals are $40 each.
	There is a 90 day free upgrade period. So if you buy
January 1 and the update comes out on time version V will be
free. However for the rest of the first year upgrading is 60% of
cost of buying new. This leads me to want to wait until V is
actually released.
	If you, and anyone else, are interested, PLEASE write to
jbrennan@daisy.waterloo.edu and ask her what I asked: if we wait
until Jan.1 and buy then, even if it is late we get the free
upgrade. This way we don't have to wait 3-5 months to buy. I
think this helps them as well as us.
