Hi there, I have been tyring to get a copy of the Bedrock Architecture CD. I talked to someone as Symantec at Comdex and was told that they would get back with me. Then last month I attended a Symantec seminar here in Atlanta and spoke to the local sales rep. She told me she would also get back with me. Does the CD exist? Are you out of them? Is this really a top secret project you don't want developers knowing what you are doing? Sorry about that…..I have been fighting with big blue for the last two weeks. Another story another time…. If you can point me to someone who can give me some info I would very much appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Jeff Billman

Jeff, Email Bedrock Info 73370,500 with your name, company name, address, and phone number. They'll be able to put you on the early information/beta list. From there you'll supposedly get the CD. (The CD does indeed exist. It was handed out, I'm told, at the Worldwide Developers Conference back in May. They're supposed to send it to everybody already on the list, but I haven't seen it yet.) Joe

Joe, The CD does indeed exist, but you might have to remind Symantec a couple of times that YOU do. I called up Symantec last April or so and left my address on their voice mail/answering machine. I got no response, so at the end of May sent an email to the CI$ account. About a week later, they sent me some preliminary info and a questionnaire. I filled out the questionnaire and sent it back that day, and about a week later I got the disk. Did you get the questionnaire? Did you write "Please send the Bedrock CD" in the comments area? Maybe they're mailing them alphabetically. I'm way up in the "H"s (or sometimes "M"s). FWIW, Michel

I got in on the Early Developer program long before the architecture CD was created. (We're talking about a year ago here.) I'll tickle them by Email. <sigh> Joe
