Does anyone know the update procedure for LightSpeed Pascal? I saw LSP v2.0 advertised in MacUser. What is the update cost?

The ad in MacUser says (in the fine print at the bottom of the page) to call (408) 446-9994 for upgrade information. When you call that number, a nice gentleman says that upgrade information will be mailed to all registered users starting the middle of August. He said he had no other information at this time. I had hoped to ask him about what "And soon, MacApp!" meant in the ad. Sounds that although 2.0 supports Object Pascal, we'll have to wait until 2.1 (?) for MacApp. The fine print also says that the suggested retail price is $125. That is the same as LSP 1.11! I assume that there will be new manuals so I would expect the upgrade to cost (though perhaps not as much as the LSC 3.0 upgrade). I'm looking forward to August and I hope the wait for MacApp won't be long. Herb Poppe NCAR INTERNET: hpoppe@scdpyr.UCAR.EDU (303) 497-1296 P.O.

I called the number given in the August MacUser issue (the ad is near the front of the magazine - sorry, it's at home at the moment). The information I was given was o upgrade will be available in September o registered owners will receive notices in the mail o upgrade will cost $49 o upgrade is free if you bought LSP after July 1 -- Larry Riddle | gatech!emory!riddle USENET Emory University | riddle@emory CSNET,BITNET Dept of Math and CS | riddle.emory@csnet-relay ARPANET Atlanta, Ga 30322 | (404) 727-7922 AT@T
