I talked last week to the Letraset people about the bugs I've seen with
Ready Set Go 3.0 (as an aside, the tech support person didn't want to admit
the program existed until he had my serial number.  I was eventually able to
convince him to talk to me by promising to not ask questions that might
require tech support services. I was not amused....).

Users of RSG 3 should know that there are TWO releases of RSG 3.0.  The
original release in November had a number of bugs in it all over the place.
A later release in December fixes them as well as releasing a new and
improved dictionary (for their almost useless spell checker).  If you have
the November release (I do -- check by doing a Get Info on the application
and checking the date) you need to call their 800 number (have your serial
number ready!) about setting things up to return your master disk for
updating.

He also told me that Postscript blocks do not work with Laserprep 3.3 DUE TO
BUGS IN LASERPREP, and that Apple would be releasing a fixed laserprep in
about 30 days.  Laserprep 3.3 is the latest release, shipped with the SE,
and the release I happen to be running.

This is the first I've heard of bugs in the Laserprep, and frankly, I'm not
sure if Letraset is covering itself or if there ARE bugs in laserprep. Can
anyone enlighten me?  Should I really downgrade back to 3.2?

Now, where did I put that master disk? (mutter)
