MPW 3.1 (Final) is currently being built. It should be available from APDA
in 4-8 weeks (after testing gets through with it, etc etc etc). It will
include a new C compiler which is better than the one included with MPW
C++. I don't know what the APDA upgrade policy to MPW 3.1 will be, but
I hope that the price will be reasonable (or even, God forbid, free).
If you can't wait for final, find a friend with C++ and borrow (remember,
only you can prevent software piracy) a copy of the C compiler to tide
you over until 3.1 final is out.

And, by the way, lighten up dudes,
