What is the best upgrade deal for Speedcache+? It comes free with the $50
Norton Commander 4.0 upgrade. Is there a better deal?
Currently there is only one upgrade deal available. The one you mentioned is
for previous owners of Norton Commander. By upgrading to the latest version of
Norton Commander you will receive The Norton Speedcache+ absolutely FREE.
All previous upgrade promotions expired at the end of May.

Pat,
I just happened to see your message about Commander. Just got the upgrade
notice yesterday, and saw an article in Infoworld. I have used Commander for
years, and love it. I have one question. Are the new viewers in 4.0 as fast
as Commander 3.0? I also got Desktop for DOS, and was disappointed at the
sluggish performance in file viewing, which I do a lot. The Infoworld article
says "…made 4.0 fast and lean, making it ideal for portables" Inquiring minds
want to know, how fast compared to 3.0?
Also, is the program now shipping or just "announced"?
Thanks very much,

The Norton Commander 4.0 is currently shipping. It is comparable in speed to
the previous version. The performance of Norton Desktop for DOS is more
demanding due to the overhead of the graphical environment/Menuing System being
used.
You get The Norton Speedcache+ absolutely free with the upgrade. A $99.00
product free for the price of an ugprade is an exceptional deal. If you have a
CDROM drive and at all interested in upgrading your exsiting Norton Commander
don't pass this one up.
You can get more information the Norton forum (GO NORTON).
FYI.

Pat,
>>The Norton Commander 4.0 is currently shipping.
Great news!!!!! I did jump over to the Commander forum yesterday, and finding
most if not all reports favorable, have already ordered the upgrade. I do
indeed have a CD-ROM drive, and look forward to trying SpeedCache+
My buddy and I are BIG fans of Commander, and have been anxiously hoping for
this new version for a long time. For anybody watching, Norton Commander is
absolutely _the best_ file manager. Don't miss it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you……..

Thanks for your kind words. I am confident you'll be just as enthusiastic
about Speedcache+ once you receive it and see the performance advantages.
Thanks again.
