By now, some of you have noticed that Central Point is ready to release
PC Tools Version 6.  All I've seen to date is a list of features and the
standard statement that Central Point prices its upgrades at 25-30% of
the new version's list price.  Has anyone upgraded and had the chance to
try it out?

["What's this?? *Another* new version??"]

Apparently Version 6 supports sending faxes, backups directly to tape
units, and a host of other stuff.  If there's enough interest, I can post a
list of changes/features I saw in the glossies.  But I haven't talked to
anyone who has used it yet, so whether it's worthwhile is for someone else
to say...
