Whoa...I think I read this message on my own board, but I missed
something because I'm reading this now, and slap me if I'm reading
wrong, but I think you just said that I can get a Watcom OS/2 C/C++
compiler for $100...umm...that is pretty damned cheap!! ...uhh who
do I contact about making such a purchase? I certainly couldn't just
walk into the local Best Buy and ask for it...anyway, THANKS a
LOT...that was one of the BEST messages I've read in a LONG TIME...(now
I'm glad I called this board right now ...) Lookin' forward to
your response!! Talk to 'ya later!!!
