C and Laser C. OK, you have to buy the stuff directly from the European vendor. If enough people in the US try to buy the compiler, the guys at Borland will change their minds (eventually). I just got an add from a German magazine called "ST Magazin" from September 1989. It says that a company called Borland GmbH in Germany (they changed their name is suppose) is selling the package for some 228 DM. ($100) The developers version including an assembler and symbolic debugger costs 342 DM. ($160). The address of this company is: BORLAND GmbH Lindwurmstrasse 88 D-8000 Muenchen 2 Telex 5212637 mcm d Telefax (089) 779339 Tel. (089) 72010-201/202 All this is in West-Germany. Remember that these numbers are only valid from within W-Germany. I think that you have to leave the initial 0 (of 089) away when you call from any other country than W-Germany.
