        Dear Dan,

        Putting aside our differences over NT4/S vs ASIP 6.2, can you please
elaborate on the Micros~1 Office SP2 issue? Is this for Office 97 for win
clients, Office 98 for Mac clients; or Office 98 on the machine actually
running ASIP 6.2 (assuming that it's not a dedicated server, i.e. it's a
combo workstation/server)?

        Thanks!
        Dan
