Hmmmmmmm.
Something clearly went wrong here. Can you tell me what version of
what OS you're running and what file name you got when you downloaded?
I tested all of this eight ways from Sunday but there's always a ninth.

Fellow Revolutionaries:
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF ANNOUNCEMENT
I know you're busy like me so I don't want to force you to wade
through six paragraphs to get to the bottom-line message. Here
are the highlights of this announcement:
* Shafer Media is now selling an updated version of my Vol. 1
"Software at the Speed of Thought" as a SmartEBook (electronic
form, other goodies included, self-updating)
* All of my Rev books will be released as SmartEBooks, effective
immediately.
* While they last, printed copies of the old Vol. 1 are available
through my store (http://www.shafermediastore.com/tech_main.html)
for $24.95 + shipping & handling, a savings of $12.05 over the
old price.
Now here's the deathless prose for those inclined to indulge:
=====================================================================
=== ======================================
While a formal announcement will be released on Tuesday, I wanted
to give the amazing members of this iist a heads-up about some
exciting news concerning the publication of my ongoing series of
books about Revolution.
RunRev and my company, Shafer Media, have agreed that Shafer
Media will become the official press of Revolution and assume
responsibility for publishing, marketing, and distribution of the
current and future titles in my "Software at the Speed of
Thought" series, effective immediately.
At the same time, Shafer Media is announcing a new, revised and
slightly expanded version of the first volume in what was once
planned as a three-volume set of books. The new edition of that
volume is now available in electronic form only from http://
www.shafermediastore.com/tech_main.html. Over 100 corrections and
clarifications have been made in this new release in response to
feedback from dozens of readers. This eBook is available through
the Shafer Media Store right now for Windows and OSX for $29.95.
(An OS 9 version may happen if we can resolve some technical
glitches.)
Not only that (I'm starting to sound like a Ginzu knife salesman
here, I know, but there's lots to say), all of these eBooks --
including the two released topical eBooks on Rev as a CGI and Rev
Custom Properties -- are being delivered using innovative new
SmartEBooks(tm) technology. For you as a reader, this means that
the eBooks will keep themselves current automatically when you
open them, just like software does. It also means many
SmartEBooks will consist not only of PDF files but also of
accompanying audio video, text, and software code files (source
and/or binary) in a single downloadable package. For example,
Volume 1 of the Rev series, when delivered as a SmartEBook, has
all of the major sample stacks and laboratory exercises included
as Rev stacks you can run, tweak, take apart, play with, and
learn from.
RunRev will continue to sell the book as a SmartEBook via their
site store. All other titles in the series will be available only
through the Shafer Media Store (http://www.shafermediastore.com).
What about printed books, you ask? Well, we still have a limited
number of copies of the print edition avaialble for sale. They,
of course, do not have the additions and corrections I made in
the second edition being released today as a SmartEBook. We plan
to offer a print-on-demand solution for those who want a hard
copy of the second edition but we are still searching for a
reliable, affordable outlet for that product. Stay tuned for
another announcement soon. Meanwhile, I'm dropping the price on
the remaining printed copies from $37 to $24.95 plus shipping &
handling while supplies last, which probably won't be long.
