Numerous emails to Tony get responses that indicate he intends to ship "this weekend" or "early next week" or some other close-by date.  The last couple times he had indicated that a CD printer (labeller?) needs fixing.  I'm interested in the content, not the label or even the disk, as I hope to be able to back it up for safety (and to transfer to an Apple IIe.)

I planned to order at least one other title (Time in A Bottle and possibly Opus II the Software) but frankly I'm afraid to.  I definitely don't want to order anything until I've received what I ordered 9 months ago.

I don't know how it will affect your current situation, since the
product in question was still "available" at the time you ordered it,
but the Softdisk collections (Softdisk Supreme, Simply Softdisk GS,
and Ultimate Uptime) are no longer available.

Apparently the distribution agreement expired a couple years ago and
sometime after that someone bought what was left of Softdisk
Publishing, LLC and asserted his claim recently, making them remove
the products from availability. They were apparently quite dickish
about it, too and it looks as though they'll never make it available
themselves.
