I placed my order for AmiPro 3.0b today by calling the 800-TRADE-UP number. The update, however, was not free. There was a $10 charge for shipping & handling (which I was happy to pay.) I did ask for, and spoke with, a supervisor; she was kind enough to inform me that as of 4 PM yesterday, they started charging $10, as directed by the Lotus headquarter. The initial confusion over the pricing of the updates prompted her to call Lotus directly to get the definitive word. So I guess those who called early got lucky. Interestly enough, she also said the 3.0 to 3.0a upgrade should also have costed $10, but somehow I lucked out and got it for free. IMHO, I'd rather pay $10 to Lotus than to Micro$oft; Bill Gates is rich enough without my contributions. :) Jimmy -- Jimmy Shaw OS/2: It costs less, it does more. eaiu184@orion.oac.uci.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------------
