Talk about abandoning existing customers... I thought the Improv free upgrade was targetted at new NeXT releases, which I believe all come with a floppy drive. Could be wrong, though. However. The optical drive just plain isn't suited for media distribution in such small measures (small compared to 256M). You could either ask NeXT or Lotus if they'd be willing to give you an OD with it, for the price of the OD at least, *or* you could easily gain access to a floppy-bearing NeXT via the net... It isn't the perfect solution, but perfection is hard to come by. >John Garnett ------ Mike Matthews, matthews@lewhoosh.umd.edu (NeXT)/matthews@umdd (bitnet) ------ Heaven: A place where the wicked cease from troubling you with talk of their personal affairs, and the good listen with attention while you expound your own.
