Hello all,
many people ask us these days whether XWIN 1.x or 2.0 or 2.1 are running with IRIX 6.5 .
THEY WILL NOT RUN!
The first version of NMR Suite that will run with IRIX 6.5 is version 2.5, because SGI
elected to make changes in IRIX 6.5 that render earlier versions of XWIN unsuitable.

However, NMR Suite 2.5 WILL run with earier versions of IRIX.
The following list shows a list of IRIX versions supported by Bruker and the NMR
Suite version which run on them. Note that the NMR Suite version is determined
by the version of XWIN-NMR:
IRIX 5.2: NMR Suite 1.0 - 2.5
IRIX 5.3: NMR Suite 1.0 - 2.5
IRIX 6.2: NMR Suite 1.3 - 2.5
IRIX 6.3: NMR Suite 2.0 - 2.5
IRIX 6.5: NMR Suite 2.5
Here is an example how to read this list: If you run XWINNMR 1.3, IRIX 6.2 is the last
IRIX version you can use. If you want to upgrade IRIX beyond this version you also need
to upgrade your XWINNMR/NMR Suite. If you don't the operating system upgrade will
render your XWINNMR unoperational.

Release status for NMR Suite 2.5:
The release is already closed; CD and book replication is completed.
We are waiting for the NMR Suite CDs to be delivered to the US office to fill in your orders.

How to order NMR SUITe 2.5:
Upgrading from 2.x to 2.5 is available at a handling charge of $55.
US customers please fax or email their orders (with P.O. number, please) to :
Sandi.chimelski@nmr.bruker.com , fax (978) 667-6406

My best regards and "seasons greetings" to all of you.
Mick
