Yes, you all better just call them up right now and see if your orders still exist. I called twice a month from Jan 89 and got all of the same excuses. Finally in April I got a hold of APDA when their computer was up (!!!) and they couldn't find my '88 order. Of course they claimed that the A.P.P.L.E. co-op goofed up transfering orders -- why it took 3 1/2 months to decide that is beyond me. Anyway they were very cooperative (must've been all the net complaints) and sent me both the Oct and Dec 88 technotes (printed version) I also ordered the '89 notes and the first batch (Feb 89) was back ordered but showed up just last week. Also they send these notes via FedEx now (and in a box to boot) and they (FedEx) wouldn't leave it at the door, guess I'll just have to leave a note when I expect more notes (probably a permenently posted one). -- Steven D.

Dear Steve - Actually, future tech notes packages will be sent out to you via US Mail. This is to cut down on the shipping charges and is one of the measures we took to cut costs on tech note subscriptions. Jordan Mattson UUCP: jordan@apple.apple.com Apple Computer, Inc.
