Egods. Perhaps I'll move to Germany, or even Australia where I seem
to remember that someone actually received the NT DDK _by_mistake_ !

Dwight, could you please give MS-UK a kick in a sensitive area?! Since
your promising announcement of the CD-only NT DDK in Sept/Oct last year,
I've been calling MS-UK every week enquiring about its actual 
availability.  Only on Nov 25th did they admit to its existence but
couldn't give a shipping date. I ordered a copy anyhow. Last week they
_still_ couldn't give a shipping date, offered a few embarrassed apologies,
and suggested I try calling again mid/late January.

This is silly. True, I've no _urgent_ need for the DDK - I only want it to
be able to get on the learning curve _early_...

Please.
