Ouch!  I've been waiting for my Release 3.0.  I even bought the  
necessary new distribution format reading device (CD ROM reader)  
rather than try to get it on OD (my personal favorite!).  I never  
bought a floppy for my cube because I was told that 3.0 would come  
out on CD-ROM.  Now you say I need a floppy drive to read the floppy  
so I can read the CD-ROM!!

Once someone gets whatever is on the floppy installed, could they  
contact me and perhaps send me (NeXTmail please) the drivers or  
whatever is on the floppy so I can read my CD-ROM!

I'm holding a cardboard and plastic CDROM case.  It has a gold border  
and a little NeXT logo in the top center.  On the front it says, in  
green letters:

		NeXTSTEP 
		Release 3
		--------------
		Version 3
		Release 3
		Versi n 3
		Versione 3
		Version 3

On the inside of the front jacket is a 3.5'' floppy disk that says:

		CD-ROM Tools
		----------------------
		Release 3.0
		Outils CD-ROM
		Version 3.0
	CD-ROPM-Werkzeuge
Release 3.0
Herramientas de CD-ROM
	Version 3.0
CD-ROM-verktyg
Version 3.0


On the back it says:
 1992 NeXT Computer, Inc.  All rights reserved.


You don't need the floppy disk to upgrade if you have already  
installed 3.0PR1 or 3.0PR2.

I'd tell you what's on the CD-ROM itself, but it's spinning its  
little heart out just now...
