================
     In his message about the Manx Aztec C 1.06H upgrade,
 jer@peora.UUCP (J. Eric Roskos @ Concurrent Computer Corporation,Orlando)
writes about his discovery of System 3.0 (the _deadly_ system) on his
upgrade disk and that:
 
>The moral of this story being... don't believe the Manx release documents
>for 1.06H.  It's system 3.0 on there.
  
      This message was cross-posted to BIX(tm) (Byte Information
Exchange) [more on that later..] and jgoodnow (the Manx author) made
the following response:

>replacement disks are being sent to those who got the 3.0 system.
   
Thought that NetLand might want to see that the obvious has been corrected.
  
By the way, I have received some questions about the BIX(tm)-Usenet
gateway in effect. I'm it. The Usenet traffic is read by me; and
appropriate messages posted in the Macintosh conference of which I am
co-moderator. When a response to the net is indicated;(as in this case)
I post it. This is as opposed to the wonderful digests that Jeff Shulman
does regularly for Delphi/Usenet. Like a Mac program; I'm event driven
and spend most of my time in a polling loop....
 
Let me also extend an invitation to come visit on BIX. We have (like
Usenet) an interesting bunch of people on board as you may be aware
from the "Best of Bix" summaries that BYTE publishes. Instructions for
sign-on are usually found in BIX's BYTE ads. (How to get in through
TYMNET,etc.)
  
In any case, I will be available through any of the addresses below for
any questions or comments.
