Has anyone received their DDJ crypto CD that's been advertised for the
past half year?

John

Your inference was correct...on 12/23/97 I received a flyer in the mail
offering the Crypto CD for $89.95 if ordered before the end of the year!

There are some pretty strict rules about mail order advertising of products
that don't exist. I wonder if the folks at ddj are aware of this.
Hopefully, the letter "the editors are preparing to explain the delay" will
appear on the web site soon.

Not me.  I ordered both the crypto CD and the latest Dr. Dobbs on CD (back
issues and such) at the same time.  I got the Dr Dobbs Mag CD about two
months ago, but no crypto CD. :(


You might wanto check Remo Pini's Crypto CD.  It doesn't have the books
online, but plenty of cyphers and stuff. (rpini.com ??)

I just got off the phone with DDJ - according to the sales person "the
editors are preparing a letter to explain the delay". 

Seems kind of strange that it is taking so long.  Of note - The sales
person indicated that there has been no mention of pulling the product.
