I have received the upgrade approximately two weeks ago from Borland Pacific,
it does not come the Charles Petzold's book. I also have the SDK so this is
not a problem for me. The product is very good, as of yet I have had no
problems with bugs at all. After using Glockenspiel the speed is incredible!
