Executor 2 demos available + status report



Hi Folks,

In theory, the final demo versions of Executor 2 have been made.

While I'm putting together the rest of the CD-ROM, adventurous souls
can use ftp to pick up the new demos from ftp.ardi.com:/pub.  The DOS
files have changed slightly from the first stab at E2 demos. The new
DOS files incorporate new splash screens, a new "wait cursor", a new
installer and a new Portuguese keyboard layout.

The files in question are:

DOS 2floppy set:

	Executor_DOS/e2flop1.zip
	Executor_DOS/e2flop2.zip

DOS self-extracting archive:

	Executor_DOS/execdem2.exe

Linux:
	Executor_Linux/executor-2-demo.tar.gz

NEXTSTEP:

	Executor_NEXTSTEP/executor-nextstep-demo-2.tar.gz

Remember, these are the time-limited crippled demo versions.  The
complete versions will be on the CD-ROM.

With luck, I'll have the complete CD-ROM built in a day or two.  Then
we'll make about a dozen copies by hand and send them to the beta
testers that received beta0.  Simultaneously we'll send a copy and the
film for the CD-ROM artwork to our duplicators.

Once we get a thumbs up from each of our beta testers, we'll tell the
duplicator to crank out 5,000 copies.  At the same time, we'll notify
everyone that the beta price of $149 will go away in two weeks.
