From: Peter Sawatzki 

Geo,

The problem is that MS Germany told me by phonethat there is no such thing
as an upgrade from NT4. Are you sure there about this ? (But then they also
told me that I do *not* have to upgrade the CALs. This was definatly
different in earlier versions and I do not believe this has changed: I know
that I must upgrade them too and that they are a piece of paper, but that's
the way it always was.
