Is it worth it? Well, I have averaged about 40 dollars per month to that organization over that period, or about $1400. For this investment I have got first crack at much of the freeware and some of the beta software. I've gotten free advise from some people you may have heard of: Andy Hertzfeld and Dennis Brothers are two people on MAUG regularly. Apple AUTHORIZED posting of much of their software supplement there. Andy Hertzfeld is planning on posting the first Beta-Release of his Switch there shortly. I think it is worth it. BUT $1400 is a lot of money. -- Jim Budler Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (408) 982-6547 UUCPnet: {ucbvax,decwrl,ihnp4,allegra,intelca}!amd!jimb Compuserve: 72415,1200 The Source: STW265
