Athena Design now offers demo versions of Mesa via e-mail for those who do  
not have FTP capability.  Just e-mail to freemesa@athena.com (please make  
sure your reply-to field is correct) and you will receive a demo copy of  
Mesa, our spreadsheet for NeXTSTEP.  Sample files can be obtained from  
mesafile@athena.com and a PostScript copy of the documentation is  
available from mesadocs@athena.com.

Once we release the commercial version of Mesa (it is now in beta  
testing), users will be able to upgrade from the demo version to a working  
version simply by entering a license number and enabling code.
