I called them and the girl told me that they had a big foul up about a month ago and a bunch of orders were lost. If they lost your order they have no way to tell who you are. So if you haven't seen it yet call them so they can check if you're still in thier system. In my case they said they *had* shipped it but for some reason it never arrived. She told me she'd put a tracer on it and it arrived a couple weeks later. -Gordon

So if you haven't seen it yet call them On about Sept. 15 I sent in my upgrade form. On about Sept. 25 I called SAS to inquire about my order (They are based about 30 miles away). I was told there was no record of my upgrade order, but they would take my order and ship it out right away. I received a package (no invoice) two days later. I received an invoice in the mail about a week later (I was on vacation Sept 29 - Oct 14). On about Oct 17 I received a second package with an enclosed invoice. I have not had the time to compare the disk contents and up until I read the above posting, I had thought that SAS was already sending out updates to the version of three weeks before, and the invoice was just a reminder. I sure hope that SAS will be willing to accept payment for one upgrade. ----------------------------------------------- Reply-To: Rostyslaw Jarema Lewyckyj urjlew@ecsvax.UUCP , urjlew@unc.bitnet or urjlew@uncvm1.acs.unc.edu (ARPA,SURA,NSF etc. internet) tel.

You guys who have received an upgrade offer are lucky!
I havn't gotten any upgrade offer yet!
But a friend of mine who got his 5.04 a few months later than me
got one a month ago. (the upgrade was received a few days ago).
ANd in a short survey among the REGISTRED owners of 5.04 I know of,
One out of 4 have been given the offer.
