Bob, Yeah, I saw the features these guys were adding daily in August at SIGGRAPH, and was more-or-less eager to let them continue awhile. But now the card's been charged, which Mike said he wouldn't do until they were within two weeks of shipping. I talked to him again at his offices on Sept. 13, and he said if everyone did their jobs, it would go out on the 21st, and he seemed to be confident of that. I know a lot of things have to come together at the end for a package to make it out to the customers, but if thing drags out to, say, mid-Oct., I'm gonna be pretty angry. Though I'm sure as soon as I start playing with it, I'll probably forget all about that. Probably. What about it, Rick? What do you hear? Karl
