I think that the title says it all. I just got my MasterCard bill last week and Gadgets was listed for the withdrawl on January 15. It seems to me that it is now a month later. I realize that Small and co. are probably extreemly busy with upgrade orders now, but when you promise 2-3 weeks, it seems like you should keep close to it. If I hadn't sent off my card until the 15'th it wouldn't be so bad, but isn't it standard business practice to charge the customer only when the product has been shipped? If you have received yours let me know what you think of it, and more importantly will it run Pagemaker 4.0 and WordPerfect 2.0 under MultiFinder without crashing? They both run fine for me under Finder, but under MF, it's just a matter of time before I get the crash page, or the system just locks up (that is, if I can even get either loaded up without crashing).

I got mine about a week and a half ago. I haven't played with it much at all since I now have a MacII temporarily at home. All I can really say is that it works :-) An odd thing, sometimes there is a quote from somewhere on the Spectre background when you load the launch program. Sorta surprised me. I haven't tried PM4 since I just got that upgrade also but I'll try it soon and let you know. ******************************************************************* -> Internet: mjv@brownvm.brown.edu "He had found the perfect TV mix, on Marvin's Hour of Power.

re. problems with pagemaker and MF. I had the same kinds of problems using a Mac II until a friend told me about changing the amount of application memory allotted. Click on the file once to hilite and then press Command-I and change the lower memory number to a higher value, like about one meg for a program that shows 512K and you should improve your MF behaviour. I know a lot of Mac folk that don't know about this.
