a) Has it shown up at any dealers anywhere? Mine here in Minneapolis hasn't seen it yet and hasn't been promised a date by Apple. b) I don't remember if anyone conclusively said whether it was worth paying the $40 or so for the manuals or whether it made more sense to convince the dealer merely to upgrade your existing copy. Except for the instructions on how to use the new utilities, I certainly didn't see any reason to buy the manuals on the previous release. TMPLee@Dockmaster.ncsc.mil

i'm having problems with the installer program. the program loads in when i double-click on its icon, but bombs before i can do anything. (the brkcursor init file displays an "X".) from multiscribe gs 3.0, if i switch disks and then try to open a file the system hangs. (it works just fine if i try to open the file and then switch disks.) i have - GS rom 01 - 1.25 meg (apple memory card) - two 3.5" drives anthony girardin

It sounds to me like the disk you're booting from doesn't have 5.0 properly installed on it. Try getting a new copy of the System Disk from your dealer (or redownloading it, or whatever). Boot that disk then try to run the Installer. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Matt Deatherage, Apple Computer, Inc. | "The opinions expressed in this tome Send PERSONAL mail ONLY (please) to: | should not be construed to imply that Amer.
