Spoke to Microprose Today :)

They have now moved from end of march to can not give a date yet. I
mentioned that *** are now saying end of April. I was told that
that was going to be the next date but it has now been put back

The reason given was that they are trying to increase the speed in
SVGA.

What a Bummer.

I also Spoke to the North American Sales office last week.  I
expressed my frustration with SH/M for announcing software and talking
orders for same when the product is not even close to being ready for
release.  I placed my order January 15 when I saw their ad in PC
Gamer.

The sales rep reported that SH/M has pushed the date back to what he
"estimates" as the end of April and that that date was only "HIS"
estimate.

He mentioned that he knows what the hold up is but was not at liberty
to divulge that information to me.  After a little more prying, he
told me that frame rates are one of the delays still holding release
of the product.

I guess everyone wants to grow up to be just like MicroSoft!
