>From USENET group "comp.windows.x.announce" ..... Release 2 of X13 is now available world wide and globally. Drawing on revolutionary breakthroughs in heuristic programming, fractal compression techniques, and pico-protocols, after three months of intense design and furious 24x7 programming, the X13 Project Team is pleased to announce X13, Release 2, previously known by its code name, "Blizzard." "This represents such an advance in technology we had to go to X13," said Nigel Tufnel, Chief Architect, "it has all the features of the unreleased X12 and then some, so we had to call it X13." Introducing the notion of virtual clients, X13 incorporates the latest advances in diet computing to produce the ultimate in thin clients. No more waiting to download even thin clients, virtual clients are virtually instantaneous, and are either there or they're not. Bob Scheifler, Director of New Product Development at Ralston-Purina said: "This technology represents a whole new breed of software development and distribution. Ralston-Purina is basing its entire Internet strategy on the Blizzard technology suite. I feel comfortable with basing our mission critical Chow-Direct system on Release 2 as this represents a mature technology, at least in dog years, and we should know." Like all prior X releases X13 Release 2 is freely available, and this time you really get what you pay for. The X13 Project Team would like to thank all of the sites world wide that are participating in the release of the software. ** FTP SITES PROVIDING RELEASE 2 (Additional mirror sites will become available shortly; please check your favorite site first.)
