Just got a "special offer, supplies limited" in the mail. Symantec is offering the Norton Utilities for $49. Call 1-800-343-4714, ext.712. My question: Norton seemed to have won the net.utilities battle hands-down a few months ago. Is anybody aware of a reason for the "fire sale"? Problems with System 7.0? -- Bill (johnston@oscar.ccm.udel.edu) -- 38 Chambers St.; Newark, DE 19711; (302)368-1949

Problems with System 7.0? Although there appear to be some problems between Norton Utilities and System 7.0, I wouldn't guess that to be the reason for the sale. Instead, I expect they are doing this to clear inventory (i.e., an update is coming), or just to thank users of other Symantec products, not including Norton Utilities. John -- John A.
