Richard's message with out confirming anything was a poor move...all it serves to do is create problems and mis-information. Beta testing will be beginning on a wider scale soon, I'll say that much at this time. But a release is still a ways down the road, and I am not even going to begin to attempt to speculate when Red Ryder 11 will be available, so don't bother to ask that question...my only answer will be it will ship when its ready....and not before.... -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp.
