	1993 release.

A.	Newsgrazer Pro has a suggested retail price of $199.99. 


Q.	Where can I purchase Newsgrazer Pro?

	Millennium at discount by calling 800 732-9009.


Q.	Is there a special educational discount price?
A.	We have not finalized our pricing.  We'll have more
	information when we're closer to shipping.


Q.	Will it be a "fat binary?"
A.	Yes, Newsgrazer Pro will ship in multiple architecture
	binary format, allowing it to run on both Motorola and
	Intel NEXTSTEP computers.


Q.	Is Newsgrazer Pro compatible with or related to the
	original NewsGrazer? 
A.	Newsgrazer Pro is a completely new product, written
	entirely from scratch.  As such, it is not based upon the
	original NewsGrazer source code.  There should not be any
	compatibility issues between Newsgrazer Pro and NewsGrazer.

	doesn't have today?

	we're closer to shipping.

	service for the product.


Q.	Do you offer special network or file server versions?  What
	about corporate pricing?
A.	Yes, you can purchase Newsgrazer Pro's license server
	manager to administer network licenses.  Volume pricing
	will also be available.


Q.	Can I use Newsgrazer Pro at home to access the UseNet?  How
	do I do this?
A.	Yes, you can use Newsgrazer Pro at home to read news.
	Newsgrazer Pro does not create or manage the UUCP or SLIP	
	link required to access news groups, however.  Ask your
	service provider for help in configuring this dial-up
	connection to your home or office system.


Q.	Can I place an advance order and purchase a beta copy
	before the final release product ships?
A.	We'll have more information about this in September.

	Engage! Desktop Release 2.0.  Both products are shipping in
	multiple architecture binary format, allowing them to run
	on both Motorola and Intel NEXTSTEP computers.
