Thanks for the notification of a 4/15 version. I was not notified of the 3/30/99 version (nor the 4/15 version) and based on what I saw in the chat room Weds a.m., a few score others weren't as well. I also was not aware that when they put out new releases the responsibility rest solely with the users to 'check and see'; that MB's policy was it had no responsibility to communicate this to their customers. If you have the EMail they sent out telling us to check the site 'often' (daily? weekly?), could I ask you to please send it along to me (mzellinger@earthlink.net) or post it here? Now I'm wondering if they've dropped me from their mailing list. I've been w/MB nearly a year and, now that I think of it, have not received any EMails from them in a few months. Ironically, I used to check the site every morning for the short lists but when they stopped maintaining those, I stopped wasting the time. Now its just more reliable to try and short all my short candidates at absurd prices and let RT tell me if its available or not. Once again, thanks for posting that there's a new version available!

Hello, Colin. Another version!? When i phoned the other day to find out what was happening, Matt at MBT said a reinstall should not take the usual 40 minute download time, for some reason or other. That wasn't my experience. Is there a way to shorten the d/l time when you're doing a reinstall over an older version?
