My interpretation of this was that they accidentally sent out a live,
non-expiring, version of TurboStore 7x24 Online on all 5.5 tapes. They
are telling everyone that they are entitled to consider that version
a "demo" and to continue to run it until July 15th. I don't think it
will actually expire, they are saying that is the last day you will be
legally entitled to use it.
It was not clear whether Express 2 would take some action like purging
the product from the system, which would require you to make darn sure
that your subsys tape included the product if you actually own it,
otherwise the installation of the update might wipe out your backup
tool.
