If you haven't received your upgrade yet, when you do you'll see that the upgrade packaging is radically different than the shelf packaging. Although the disks probably come from the same duplicator and the manuals from the same printer, that's about all the two packages have in common. My upgrade arrived in a plain box with nothing but the two manuals and shrink-wrapped disks. Symantec ran out of upgrade packages around the beginning of August and had to manufacture more. It's unfortunate that it coincided with a major show. Marsh Gosnell att!lzma!mkg
