I hope this is a RUMOR. > According the a posted upgrade sheet in our computer store, the academic version of the upgrade to Word 4.0 doesn't not include all the manuals nor does it include SuperPaint. The upgrade supposedly includes a coupon to buy the manuals and buy SuperPaint ($50 for SuperPaint). I haven't actually seen an acdemic upgrade, since I bought the regular version. But, if I remember correctly, the academic version didn't include all the manuals in the first place, so I wouldn't expect them in the upgrade. >________________________________________________________________________ >Xiaoxia Ye INTERNET/BITNET/UUCP: xxiaoye@eleazar.dartmouth.edu >Dartmouth College For more info: finger xxiaoye@eleazar.dartmouth.edu Jonathan Fisher jvictor@pawl.rpi.edu or userfwgy@rpitsmts.bitnet
