This document provides late-breaking or other information that

Note: If you have purchased a computer directly from a PC 
      manufacturer (eg. DELL, Compaq, Gateway, Micron etc.) that 
      comes with a SB Live! Value card, installing Live!Ware 3.0 
      will cause some of the customized settings or features to 
      be upgraded to Live!Ware 3.0.
