[comp.sys.apple] AppleWorks 3.0 ??

CREC4B@IRISHMVS.CC.ND.EDU ("Pete Shaw ", CREC4B@IRISHMVS) (07/09/89)

This question may show how uniformed a user I really am,
but I'll ask anyway.
   WHERE IS "APPLEWORKS 3.0" ??
I have asked most of the dealers in South Bend, and they all
say that there is no such thing as AW-3.0. The way it is being
dicussed on this network leads me to think that it is out there
somewhere, BUT WHERE ??

It has not been released to the general public yet.  It is suppose
to be available in late August or early September.  Claris, however,
is taking upgrade orders now.

It has been officially announced.  We are in the process of fixing the
last bugs.  We have decided to spend extra time testing AW 3.0 since
AppleWorks is very popular and we don't want 10000 calls a day about
bugs.

Woah!  First user I've seen on the net from my old Alma Mater, and home town! 
Greetings!  How's the bend these days?

Claris has an 800# (which I don't have with me but can forward to you
tomorrow) where you can get more info/order the new 3.0 version.  There were a
few bugs that showed up in Beta testing, so Claris delayed the official
release to August.  So it shouldn't show up in any stores until the end of
next month.  And from what friends back there tell me about the state of
computing in Indiana, it may NEVER show up.

You may be deluged by mail on this, but if not, I saved the text of some key
messages on what all the new AW 3.0 features are, and will forward you a copy
if you desire.

Yours in Notre Dame ( <-- Stole that from Fr. Ted )
