	I've been seriously considering doing just this.  I admin a
Unix box that could easily handle such a list, and the information would
be valuable to my employer/educator too.  We have ~50 GW2K machines, and
another 6 on the way right now . . .

	I doubt that GW will do the Paradox upgrade.  Firstly, they just did an upgrade from 3.5 to 4.0 (and botched handling it very badly IMHO).  And Paradox
4Win is a different sort of beast, in many ways.

	What version of QAPlus are they distributing?  We haven't gotten any
machines that included that yet, and I was wondering how old the version that
I have is.
