When I respond to the same request privately three times, I then assume it is of public interest and post publicly: For the B'land demo cube/printer/etc. sale, call Norm Gilbert at (408)437-2623 (with credit card in hand), or fax him at (408)437-4454. He has an email and compuserve address, but as the cubes dwindle, I'd suggest contacting him directly, since you don't know how often he checks his email. I ordered a printer from him 22 Jan and have not received it yet. He said I should get it in a week or so. Sounds like they're *real* busy pumping out those orders. Mark Adler madler@pooh.caltech.edu

I've been speaking with Norman fairly regularly and he has asked me to pass the word that he is VERY busy. I won't take up bandwidth with the details, but he asked that people who are interested in getting in touch with him use the fax number or the net addresses (he checks them frequently). His voice mail system can hold only fifty messages and at the moment it fills about once every three hours. Getting in touch with him directly is close to being a recreational impossibility. Please, unless you are next of kin or next to suicide, use the following numbers if you can... Fax: 408-437-4454 CServe: 73307.555@CompuServe.COM Applelink: M2643@AppleLink.apple.com Incidently, if you try to call him, you probably get thhe vioce mail system with a message saying basically what I've told you here. Be nice to the guy, we've been swamping him for months now. cheers adam
