Hello,

 -SL>It isn't hard to port at all unless you're into a lot of
 -SL>Borlandisms. It comes on floppy, too, but I believe it

        What are considered Borlandisms?  Non-ANSI C stuff?  I'm no Mr. ANSI ¨C. :-).

 -SL>comes on 68 (!) floppies. They charge more for this than
 -SL>what it costs to buy a single-speed CD-ROM. Just buy a
 -SL>CD-ROM. $60, and its good for other stuff, too, like DevCon
 -SL>CD's. :)

        $60 for a CD-ROM drive?  That is about $90 Canadian.  Hmm.. are you
¨sure you aren't lying? .  Maybe it is for the really good ones,
but I ¨thought all of the ones I know of are more than $400 Canadian.  Do
you know ¨where I can get one of these?  Will the programming language CDs
work with a ¨single-speed CD-ROM drive?

                                        Mike
