     I just received my 3.2 upgrade package, and a few questions immediately
reared their ugly heads:

     *	The "How to build your manuals" card shows that I should have received
        an update to volumes 1 and 2 of the Programmer's Guide.  I didn't get
        one.  Do I need this, or is this for some other, pre-3.1, upgrade?

     *	I was a little disappointed to discover that since I own a 4D/50GT,
     	I don't get Quick Model and QuickPaint, but that 4D/20 and 4D/25
     	owners do.  Is there some penalty for buying the more expensive
     	machines?  It says I can order these as an option.  How much will
     	this cost?  How long to get the tools?  Why weren't they just included
     	to begin with?  How come I spent $70,000 and get less than a guy who
     	spends $15,000?

I'm doing my installation today, without (gasp!) reformatting the disks.  I'll
let you know if any problems occur.

Gee, Beaver, everything that's fun can get you in trouble.  Haven't you
learned that yet? --Gilbert
