- Since no-one on Usenet seemed all that sure, I thought I'd call NeXT and
- ask when we might expect 3.0 to appear. I was told that it started 'shipping'
- on Monday, August 28th, and to expect my copy within a couple of weeks.
-
- This could just be bullshit to appease customers, but it's what they say.
-
- I was also amazed at:
- a) How prompt they were to answer; I didn't have to wait at all.
- b) How polite they were when dealing with a inquisative jerk like myself.
-
- Anyway, now you know...
