Regardless, it is demonstrably untrue that Watcom have no Internet address. They have been using "watcom.com" instead of "watcom.on.ca," and they have a web page under "http://www.powersoft.com/". There is no question that the quality of the support has declined, but this is, in my opinion, more a result of the compiler changing from a $1500 product to a $300 product than from the Powersoft acquisition. When the compiler was outrageously expensive, it came with unlimited free support; now it doesn't. -- Mike ---* Origin: N1BEE BBS +1 401 944 8498 V.34/V.FC/V.32bis/HST16.8 (1:323/107) SEEN-BY: 50/99 54/99 270/101 620/243 625/155 711/401 413 430 934 712/311 407 SEEN-BY: 712/505 506 517 623 624 704 713/317 800/1 @PATH: 323/107 396/1 270/101 712/624 711/934 |
