>Whoa! Jeff, what's this B.79.05 stuff? Shouldn't HPRELVERSION show "C.50.xx"?
We assume that we can take the middle two digits if the release version and
divide by 10 to get what everybody thinks of as the MPE version. I don't want
to have to add another whole set of mappings like 7.9==5.0, etc.
 
 
JV: You're right!  HPRELVERSION will contain 'C.50.0x' (where x is 0,1 or 2,
    depending on what happens to Express release ids).  So you're algorithm
    is valid.  My example came from an experimental os version, not the real
    5.0 push.  Sorry for the confuction.
