To all of you who were "outraged" that you were billed in June for a product
released in September ...

Did you actually bother to READ the upgrade letter sent out by OSS?  They
specifically stated that you would be charged early, and receive the
software later.  They also promised that if they did not get it out on the
projected date, they would either (1) pay for the shipping or (2) let you
have a coupon for a "free" next upgrade.  They mailed out a card on the
14th of August to that effect (and yes, I am keeping the card handy...)

Manuals -- well it looks like a LOT of printers are having major problems
getting computer manuals (and magazines - ala ST-Log) out on time.  Most
large print shops have schedules -- if they print during week one, they
may not be able to reschedule a printing for four weeks or so.  That's one
reasons some comics come out "later" than they're supposed to.. (and books,
and ... )
