Kevin, Thanks for the info. What I need to know is what is the deadline for those of us who purchased it before Jan. 1, before that upgrade price is withdrawn. That is if its only available for a certain period of time.

According to the upgrade procedures paper I just received; "To obtain the upgrade, they (Customers) must furnish their dealer with the original serialized Diskette #1 of Autodesk 3D Studio V1.x. If they are within the free upgrade period (1Jan.92 – 30Apr.92), they must also supply an original proof of purchase (plus the required disk) with their upgrade request." So if I read this document correctly, if you purchased 3DSv1.x between 1Jan.92 and 30Apr.92, you are eligable for the FREE upgrade. Purchases before 1Jan.92 are not eligable and therefore require an upgrade fee of $395.00. Upgrades are furnished through Authorized Autodesk Multimedia Dealers ONLY. No direct upgrades are available. Sorry about the delay, BobP Product Support – Autodesk

Ravi, The upgrade price of $395 is the standard upgrade price, just like they do with AutoCAD. It is not likely to change, except perhaps when rel. 3 comes along. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates
