Wow -- that is very nice. I am about to load YDL onto a Power Mac 7500, 
and that is all good news.

I do not know the answer to this question. However, I have to ask: where 
does one learn about YDL 4? I have not seen anything on Terra Soft's Web 
site. Have I missed an important announcement? Is this an Internet 
rumor? Is more information available to subscribers to YDL.net?

Thanks!

Best wishes,
