According to the Press Release, 5.0 goes for $49. Can we legally copy
it onto blank disks if we bring our original System Disks to Apple
Dealers. Some of us don't want the "glossy" manuals and would rather
buy the reference when it becomes available.

yes, the software is also free to all of you who wish to just copy it and forge ahead without docs. I believe this was said at the end of the press release. --Rick Ewing Apple Atlanta __________________________________________________________________________ |Disclaimer: Segmentation Fault: Core Dumped. | | | |Internet: REWING@APPLE.COM-----------------------Rick Ewing | |ApplelinkPE & MacNet Soon!------------------Apple Computer, Inc. | |Applelink: EWING--------------------100 Ashford Center North, Suite 100 | |Compu$erve: [76474,1732]--------------------Atlanta, GA 30338 | |GENIE: R.EWING1--------------------------TalkNet: (404) 393-9358 | |USENET: {amdahl,decwrl,sun,unisoft}!apple!rewing | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
