Well, I've already sent my check in.  But hey, I can still do
multiple-platform development because I already own their Borland C++
3.1 for DOS/WIN.  This is just fine for me, and since I am a user of one
of the best products out there for programming in OS/2 (Guidelines) I
can easily do multiple-platform apps between OS/2 and Windows.  The
newest version of Guidelines (2.1A) is available in the Fernwood filenet
as a fully registered copy (They did it this way).  It now supports the
Borland C++ 3.1 compiler for doing Window compiles of the EXACT SAME
program that you develop for Windows.  (As long as you can work the
resources out...)
