Dr. Dobbs Crypto CD
Has anyone received their DDJ crypto CD that's been advertised for the past half year? -- Michael Gurski mailto:gurski@solipsys.com Solipsys Corporation http://www.solipsys.com 6100 Chevy Chase Drive, Suite 200 phone:(301)483-0423 Laurel, MD 20707-2929 fax:(301)483-8901
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. Regards, John Horton Mike Gurski wrote:

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.

Not me. I ordered back in August, and haven't heard anything since..

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.
