   The July issue of PC World gives a very favorable review of DOS 5
   and PCTools V7.  I haven't tried either one of them, so I really
   can't verify the review.  

   Now that both programs are out in stores, just *when* is central
   point is going to ship the upgrades to those customers who ordered
   the upgrade?  

   I remember when I ordered Prodigy and it took a full 8 1/2 weeks to
   arrive.  And was it worth it?  I used it once, and quit.  Thank god
   it was a free offer..

I purchased PCTools V7 last night.  I spent 2 hrs last night and
another 2 this morning putting it on.  It took about 4 meg (or so) and
I didn't install all of it.  It's pretty impressive that it comes with
soo much.  I upgraded from nortons 4.51 and it's quite  a change.
