David, according to the compiler team members on the IBM news group
(news.software.ibm.com) the 3.6 upgrade was for the AIX version only -
that would explain the bargain price.  VACPP for OS/2 is at 3.0, FP8
with ver. 4.0 either gone gold or going this week.  No upgrade prices
yet, tho. If Toronto's promises of matching the NT version feature for
feature hold, it's a really nice package - head and shoulders above
3.0, especially the visual builder and the compile speeds.  I use 3.0
for OS/2 and 3.5 for NT so I'm really looking forward to the release -
assuming a decent price, that is.
