c'mon you guys, I know you are all DYING to get the new 3.0 but don't be THAT
pessimistic! If you read the mail header carefully you see that it mentions 
August 24, which happens to be a Monday, even in the current year 1992!

And if you bother to call NeXT's 800 number (848-NeXT) and press option #5
you can even get prompt information about when your CD has been shipped!
Is this great service or what?!

Let's give the hard working guys at NeXT a big round of (electronic) 
applause...
