I've been back in the US, where I received my boxed-set of Win4Lin/4.0 -- yes, I'm also due a free upgrade for being a Win4Lin/1.0 buyer, but I decided to give my financial support to Trelos, again. Well, I just returned to Israel late this afternoon, and opened the boxed-set. What a surprise! My $90 (US) doesn't even buy me an effing jewel case for the CD. But the even bigger surprise was seeing an alphanumeric "key" printed across the label which holds the cheesy CD envelope closed. Imagine if I'd just ripped it open -- I'd've never been able to read that all-important ID. As it was, it took me seven attempts to enter the ID during the installation process, because some dim-bulb decided to use lowercase letters, and I couldn't decipher the second-to-last character as being an effing "f". Even Micro$oft knows that you NEVER EVER use lowercase letters in an ID key. Never. Only uppercase letters. I bought, from RedHat, a boxed-version of RedHat/5.2 two days before they announced 6.0 (and RedHat refused to give me a free upgrade); I bought a boxed-version of RedHat/6.1 from them two weeks before they announced 6.2 (again, no free upgrade). Both versions, together, cost less than the boxed-version of Win4Lin/3.0. Caveat emptor. _______________________________________________ Win4Lin-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.netraverse.com/mailman/listinfo/win4lin-users
