I am GLAD that the beta was removed from hobbes. The last thing developers
want to see is blatent breaches of copyright even for beta software. If this
had been allowed to continue then IBM may have decided to return to the pre
World wide DAP beta test mode. If you know somebody with a CD-ROM then pay 
$15 to get the CD and copy the disks. The other option is to ask nicely 
somebody in your local area who has the beta to make a copy for you from  
thier allowed 10 copies. My company is currently only using 5 of my alloted
10 copies. ( The rest are however already allocated ) 

Please support the devlopment efforts of developers large and small BUY
software that you use and pay the poor souls who write shareware otherwise
they will stop developing software.
