[all too common story deleted]

You think THAT's bad?  NeXT lost my first order, and I didn't know this for
sure until 4 or so weeks after I sent it in.  So I sent in another order and
got parts of my order that week; of course, the missing piece was the CD ROM
drive.  Well, apparently NeXT found the first order because they tried to
cash the first check which was cancelled; they almost cancelled my order but
luckily I thought they might do something like that so I had that
straightened out (well, someone else did it, she's probably reading this now,
and I'll say Thanks! to Lianne again).

I ordered a CD ROM well before 8/1/92 and I'll have to wait too.

But hey, at least I have the 3.0 upgrade CD.  Ooooh aaaah.

>Greatly disappointed,

You ain't alone.  This sucks.

I would have promised those terrorists a trip to Disneyland if it would have
gotten the hostages released.  I thank God they were satisfied with the
missiles and we didn't have to go to that extreme.
