I checked on this and the 5.0 POWERPATCH will be C.50.02 and it should be orderable on or shortly after next Wednesday (4/26/95). Of course, the reason for the mentioning of SLT, FOS, and SUBSYS tapes is that the documentation is for an EXPRESS release of the 5.0 version of the OS. -- --Pete Crosby ************************************************************************ * "Arguing with an Engineer is like mud-wrestling a pig.
