There will be two slipcase versions, 640K PC and 512K AT.  I've sort of
given up on the 256K version.  There will be a 256K 1.2 release in the
software-only version, but then I will stop with 256K.  P-H says that
their orders are about 55% PC, 45% AT and less than 10% 256K.

The target date is sometime in late October, if all goes well.
All will go well if Murphy takes his vacations in October.
