To get registered as a RR owner and get notification of upgrades (and the
upgrades themselves) you have to join GEnie and the Freesoft roundtable.
Instructions for doing this were in my Red Ryder box (and I joined last
night, as a matter of fact). If you live in the US or Canada, this is the
only way to get RR info and upgrades. GEnie waives their normal $18.00
signup fee for people joining this way, by the way.

I run my 10.3 off of a 2400 baud modem with no problem.
