Hi there,
	I received from coherent a brochure to buy 6Mbytes of Coherent
Compatible software that has been pulled of the MWC BBS. They want $40 for
it. Does anyone know whether you get "better" documentation or if there are
any other reasons to purchase the software instead of downloading them from
an FTP site. My guess is that they are making it cheaper for users with a modem
to get a hold of the software. Any comments?

Thanks,
