Well, for Ewan and others, you could always order a copy yourself direct
from Commodore. This does require a bit more effort but the disks get 
delivered right to your door! Seriously, the CATS group in Westchester
can sell you a copy of 1.2 (or 1.3 when it is available) for the same
price as the dealer sells it for. Note that the upgrade is not free.
Some people around here were confused at first thinking that their
dealer would call them in and hand them an upgrade pack. It was however
nearly free ($15) so no one I know complained.

And in case you are wondering, CATS address is :
	CATS
	Commodore Business Machines
	1200 Wilson Dr
	Westchester, PA 19380
You could write to them and get a list of some other stuff they sell
(like developers notes, programmers documentation, etc)

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
