One more try.

Open Transport is at Version 1.0.8.  It only works on PCI-based
Macintoshes.  This is NOT a beta version, though some feel that it has
acted like one.

A release of Open Transport that works on ALL Macintoshes is 1.1 and is due
out in February (latest estimates I have seen).  It should be a part of a
System 7.5.3 update.  This version is currently in beta (I don't know the
latest beta number, but the web page referenced below gives it as
1.1b12c4).

2.0 will be a part of the Copland system release which is not due until
late 1996 or more likely some time in 1997.

Hope that helps!
