Evidently the only disadvantage is heat dissipation.

The update discussed earlier on INFO-MAC will be available in about a week. It will be free to those who alreay have the earlier version. Sending in the original disk (after backing it up) will get you the new version free of charge. They also claim to send more documentation. I asked whether Stanford will get the consortium price ($165). They said Stanford has expressed interested (IRIS) but nothing has happened yet. Megamax quoted me a $220 price (educational discount) over the phone so even if you go through Stanford eventually, you will only save $30 since there will be a handling fee. Maybe it is not worth it after all. I also found out that at CMU there was a mistake and about 15 people bought an earlier version for $90 before the mistake is discovered. I had heard about a $90 price there but it turned out to be a mistake. David Gelphman DAVEG@SLACVM.BITNET
