Indelible Blue is taking orders now. I believe delivery was due the last
week of June or first week of July. IB is offering VA for Java for
$89.00, $10.00 cheaper than direct from IBM.

You didn't actually think IBM could meet their deadline, did you?!

IBM's original press release notes the release dates as:

Planned Availability Dates:
July 25, 1997 for VisualAge for Java Professional for OS/2,v1
and
August 8, 1997 for VisualAge for Java Enterprise for OS/2, v1.

So the deadline has not yet passed.  BTW, BlueBird will be
released 3 months early.

Well if there a month late, people will complain, but if it is an OS from
a certain Microsoft, and it is a year late, people just accept and worship
it anyway.

It just doesn't make sence....

It was made available for both OS/2 and Windoze on July 8, 1997.  Let's
really rag on IBM for being LATE and for listing OS/2 first in the
download list! ;-)

Well, they've got something out but it's only available by http: download,
and since that's a chancy thing (you can't restart it on a partial file)
maybe Joshua will permit it to rest there at hobbes/incoming for a bit
while anybody who needs to REGET it can do so.

Register at: http://www.software.ibm.com/ad/vajava before you grab this
file, to try to keep IBM happy.


Good luck,

Buddy

Pardon me, but have you tried:

ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/new/oenty100.zip

Don't forget the ftp interface... It is faster, too!
