    If I hadn't read the other posts I would have too. I downloaded the
wrong one and started the install. The page is not clear.

How clever to save it until just after an IRTC deadline!

I think they have done it like that on purpose. They only want the users
that can read to do the beta testing, so that is how they weed out the
"undesirerables". }:>

LOL - makes sense (although apparently spelling is not a criteria ;)

Shouldn't that be "criterion?"

Hmm, I think you're right, but I'm not sure. Besides, getting something wrong in
any post criticising spelling is obligatory. Follow ups (?) set.

  I really don't think that the IRTC had anything to do with it... :)

I can't believe this: so many experienced POVers and them downloading 
the old 3.1 version!!

For me there was no hesitation at all to dl the right file: you 
certainly must have been all very very excited not to see clearly any 
more :)

There is surely a lot of beauty in the new version: unfortunately I am 
going abroad for a holiday very soon and will return only after 
expiration of this beta version. But who knows what will be waiting for 
me then...

Yup.  At least someone here knows English.  (j/k)

I got an email in all lowercase with no apostrophes asking if someone
could use my Sterlingware fractals as web/email backgrounds provided
they give due credit.  I said fine, but I don't know why on Earth they'd
want to, and they should get their keyboard fixed...
