- The last official release was _4.5_ so that's a beta too. I'd be careful
- out there -- there are lots of bugs that creep in and out during these
- beta runs. In fact, the 4.5.7 file format got changed around a bit so
- that it's not backward compatible. In fact, I believe it's not forward
- compatible either!!!
-
- Bugs galore!!! That's the trademark of a term beta!! Okay, I exaggerate,
- though I just got 4.5.8 in and all I get is colorful blocks on the screen
- with it... So, do like the man said and don't use a beta!!!! If you want
- to use the term betas, then become a beta tester, ya putz!!!
