Here's my 2 cents on the Quattro Pro upgrade to 3.0:
	I felt the upgrade from 2.0 to 3.0 had more to offer
	than the "upgrade" frmm 1.0 to 2.0.
	In my opinion, 2.0 was really 1.1 (which followed 1.01),
	and V3 is really the first *real* upgrade to Quattro Pro.

	After all, how much "upgrading" can you do when the
	spreadsheet file format hasn't changed over the last 2
	"major" upgrades??  (smiley face)

	*ONLY* because it is cheaper to upgrade from V2 to V3
	than it is from V1 to V3, do I feel I got *any* real
	benefit from the V2 upgrade!

P.S. - I don't really think V3 uses much more disk space than V2,
	but I haven't measured it, either.
	Somewhat depends on how many fonts you have generated.
	The sample spreadsheets seem to gone, though.
	By the way, you can save a good chunk of disk space by
	deleting Q1.MU (and probably 123.MU, also).
