I am signed on to automatically receive Tech Notes from APDA, but I have
yet to receive the November 88 release.  Has anyone else gotten them?  I
believe that these notes were distributed to the electronic networks
months ago, but I figured that obtaining them from APDA would save me the
trouble of downloading and printing them.  Wrong.

I have called APDA a couple of times and they say that the mailing is in
preparation.  As of last week, they were estimating shipment in another
month.

I had hoped that Apple's absorption of APDA would end the botched orders
and snail-like turnaround provided by the previous management.  Maybe they
need time to fix the mess, but I find it hard to understand what could be
so difficult about mailing out TNs.  When Apple needs to send out a press
release, or a notice of a price increase to its dealers, I bet it doesn't
take five months.
