I am getting a bit annoyed at the IBM Flames.  You should really be
thankful that a company is willing to share Beta Code AT ALL.  Then to
whine about it not being on an ftp site is ridiculous.  After all, IBM wants
to (and has a right to, I might remind you) make MONEY on this product.  
Thus the limitation on Beta distribution.  Finally, do you REALLY want beta
code?  I personally think I'll wait until I get that little upgrade notice
in the mail...
