	Now I'm not defending Gold Disk by any means.
	I was registered for 1.3 for around a year.
	I believe the upgrade price was $75.00. Sent it
	in and received 2.0 around 8 weeks later.
	Actually, if I remember right, I called and requested
	the upgrade over the phone. I was kinda pissed at the
	way they did it. I think they said registered owners
	after Aug, 1990 get 2.0 free. Otherwisw, $75.00!!!
