DM> Yup, that's a SERIOUS upgrade there... :-)

Yes, I thought so.  Everyone around me thought I was totally out of my mind
for trying it out, and then even more when I loved using it.  Now, if only
they could see how great it is .

 DM> A few questions... your code... what was it?  DOS or GUI?  If GUI,

Currently, I building DOS applications and Win16/Win32 Applications off of
Borland C++ (Doing a lot of work to get the Windows source running isn't
that important to me, since I rarely write those types of apps).

I have asked this before to another person, however, can you give me an
approximate price?

 DM> I also use the GNU port for OS/2: EMX (currently at 0.9b, fix #3). 

The first reply I received spoke very highly of EMX, and before I research
the other compilers you recommended (Borland, Watcom, and IBM's), I'd like
to get a copy of it.  Any clue where I FTP, FREQ, or download it from? 
Thanks.
