#R:houxv:-11600:hp-pcd:6200015:000:449 hp-pcd!charlie Feb 11 08:30:00 1983 Lotus 1-2-3 is now commercially available, they began shipping the product about 2 weeks ago. VisiOn is not currently on the market, rumors I've heard indicate a release by the end of August. I attended a colloquim on LISA, and since system code is approximately 2M (that's why they had to include the hard disk), I think that LISA is not in the same class as Lotus 1-2-3. I haven't seen any specifications on VisiOn yet. ...hp-pcd!charlie

From: David Allen Gewirtz <UCBARPA.dag@ucb-vax.arpa (David Allen Gewirtz)> Lotus is just now available from Softsel as exclusive distributor. VisiOn is not yet available and best estimates are for June or July if they are lucky. The stuff that they've been demoing has been strictly well-defined demo programs. David Gewirtz
