I have PB/DLL. If you want to buy it just to experiment with windows and
you have never programming in windows I'll tell you its a bigger expense
than you think because you will have to re-program any DOS program you
have. Why they couldn't have built a converter is beyond me! The idea and
simplicity of just saying PRINT"hello" in windows just isn't there. You'll
see when you get the langfuage and try it.
 
Two Hints:
1) GET THE PRINTED BOOKS THEY ARE ALOT BETTER THEN USING ADOBY AND THE
NON-PRINTED ONES. (Why couldn't PB make their own reader  - but that's
another issue).
2) Ge tthe API BIBLE book...It's a big help.
 
Persoanlly, I wouldn't buy it again if I had known what I was getting
into. I've had it for almost 6 months and it sits on the shelf most of the
time.
