The only reason that I can think of to tell anybody anything under an NDA is so that they have time to write nice things about on day one. It takes time to read the stuff, think about it, then write (hopefully) glowing prose about it. And, yea, it hypes up interest. I am most interested in any changes in the architecture and the new instructions. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
