At least they let you know about it, I had to call them
countless times before I got thru and could order it!

There were some nasty bugs in 4.0, the main one for me was it bombing
in the middle of a session under Multifinder!

This is news to me, I received version 4.0 about 4 weeks after I 
ordered it, and then about a month after that I received 4.1
automatically!!  The postmark on my 4.1 disk is March 16th.
This was suprising, as I had given up on 4.0
and its bugs, and I had not gotten around to calling them
and asking what was going on.

4.1 seems to work ok, but I'm still going by SEAO (save early and often...)
