I apologize if I am/was wrong, but I also believe that I saw the promise of the free upgrade to the Window version change from completely free for people who upgraded from Rebel9 to Rebel10, to a completely free Rebel for Windows. This seems to have become a 30 trial version of the Window version when it comes out, instead of (if I remember correctly), the Windows Beta version, in which in the advertising, there was originally nothing written about an expiration date. Ed, Perhaps you could (somehow), further clarify my miss-understanding, (if that is what it is), which is seeming to cause more than just myself some bad feeling about the advertising of Rebel. Thank you very much, Larry Tamarkin On September 28, 1999 at 12:34:20, Ed Schröder wrote: >On September 28, 1999 at 11:56:13, Lawrence S.
