I've been to this Upgrade link, and even with my customer number and
initials was unable to complete the upgrade order. I'm sure I'll
get it eventually when they get their website problem sorted out.
But in the meantime, did anyone find out how to get to the
information about John Murphy's Pattern Recognition Software? This
is of great interest to me, but it doesn't come up at their website
even with a text search of their Catalogue.
