While nobody is every 100% perfect, M Carling has been right on the money with  
good, accurate information so many times, that I would hesitate to ever  
disagree with him.  This is very refreshing considering the level of inaccurate  
information that exists in these groups.

Because of his position as the director of one of the largest NeXT user groups,  
I don't think it surprising to think that NeXT might key him in on priviledged  
information from time-to-time.  However, he is probably under non-disclosure.

I, too, would like to know more.  But I won't be upset if it is not  
volunteered.

Thanks, M Carling, for your net presence, and your good info.
