feldon23,

First of all, the aquarium is simply awesome - I've never seen anything like this before and I have a computer since the early 80's...

Here is why *I* would like to be able to download the retail version as soon as possible:

I am running a voodoo5 on winXP and as of now do I have two choices: I run the standard winxp drivers. The aquarium runs fine, but there is no opengl or glide support for other games/applications.

I run modified drivers. I do have opengl and glide support but all textures are white when I run the aquarium.

I would like to have both, opengl and glide support AND a aquarium screen saver that works.

I am aware of the already discussed directx8 issues with the aquarium and I have also read the tip to install the 3dfx drivers for win2k which does not solve the problem in my case.

You have mentioned a 'few bug fixes' in the new version, maybe
they will solve my problem.

Thanks to my cable connection does a download of 5 megs take
no longer than 10 seconds. I really don't understand the reason why we should not have the possibility to download the file.
