Let me take a second to clear that up now. It turns out that our ad agency messed up on us and placed that ad in MacTutor. It was not a corporate decision of Symantec, or of the THINK Division, nor was it a case of the marketing staff being ahead of the engineering staff. It was a screwup, plain and simple. My associates back in Bedford are pretty frosted at this ad agency, because as you so accurately point out, it makes us look bad, and it makes people mad. It's turned out to be a confusing business, and I apologize to all. [For those if you who came in late, here's the scoop: I understand (I haven't seen it) that an ad for the new version of LightspeedC appeared in a recent issue of MacTutor magazine.] --Rich
