        Sure am glad HP let's me know about this stuff.  I still haven't
        gotten any info about the change in delivery of documentation
        on CD and now they're dropping CD upgrades?  Guess
        maybe I should call the sales rep I can never find or the
        contracts person who is always changing and takes two
        plus days to find.

        In the mean time I guess I'll just sit and ponder on what to
        do with the CD sticking in the face of the 987 :-(
