>> WorkBench 1.3

Ditto here.  I don't have a copy of the 1.3 stuff (not being an
"official" developer.)  I do want to enter the contest, but I'm
gonna have to just assume my stuff will work with WB 1.3, etc...
I really don't anticipate any problems, but the contest does
seem to have a bias towards the official developer types because
of the 1.3 restriction.  I'm not sure what it costs to be a developer
but I understand it could be as much as several hundred bucks
or so.  Too much for me.  In any case, I'm happy with working
with the OS as it stands.  I'd really hate to write a program
using a 1.3 function and find out (after releasing the product)
that several hundred thousand 500 owners haven't gotten around
to upgrading to 1.3 (1.4, 1.5, et al) and thus can't use and
won't buy my program because it has a silly "Needs 1.3" sticker
on it.  My philosphy is to write programs for the least common
denominator when it comes to hardware (512K) and OS (1.2).
