I just got a new quad core and wanted to try the 3.7 beta 21 but it expired
on 1 July and there doesn't seem to be anything more recent.  Any info or a
way to use the previous version would be greatly appreciated.

Set your system date somewhere in June, start POV beta, reset your time to the 
correct date.
The expiration date is only checked during startup.

REMEMBER: DON'T send a bug report if you find one after doing that little danse ;-)

apologies; the reason basically is that there have been little change in
recent betas; none of us has had the time to do any serious work. that
doesn't excuse the lack of changelists but at least you know now the
reason ;(

Thanks, guys.  This app has got to be the poster child for showing the power
of quad core.  Simply amazing.  Great work.
