Hmmm .... I read the IBM announcements on IBMLink, and I got the impression
that the discount only applied to PL/I Professional Edition and not the
Personal Edition.  I'd sure like to get the Personal Edition, but can't
really afford it right now.  I have the CSet++, but having a devil of a
time understanding the C/C++ language.  My background is primarily S/370
ASM and PL/I, so trying to learn C/C++ is about like trying to learn Greek
or Russian.
