Executor 1.3 is here (almost) -- Message for everyone
Dear Folks,
Executor 1.3 is almost ready to be shipped to the disk duplication
service. Many of you have expressed interest in just using FTP to
pick up Executor and told me that you won't need to have disks sent
to you. If you would like to forego getting disks in the mail,
please send a message to me (ctm@ardi.com) with a subject of:
I don't need disks
and a body that contains your serial number (the small three or four
digit number, not the thirteen digit authentication key) and your
name as it's likely to appear on your registration form.
NOTE: unless you're an early adopter, you may want to wait 48 hours
before you pick up Executor 1.3. Right now there's no README or
Addenda file and there's a slight chance that what is on
ftp.cs.unm.edu will change (which is why I haven't yet put it on
cs.orst.edu or nova.cc.purdue.edu). However, even if you plan to
wait 48 or more hours to pick it up, you can still send e-mail to
have us not send floppies.
For those of you interested, we've had about 400 phone calls since
Robert X. Cringely gave out our phone number in his InfoWorld column.
Advance copies of Executor/DOS are already in a variety of
journalists' hands and it looks like we'll get very good reviews. I
think we'll easily meet our Executor/DOS sales goals, which means we
should finally be able to replace some of the staff we've lost since
last February and still have cash left over to grow. Hooray. It's
been a struggle.
Thanks folks; you're the best.
