- 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.
