_PC Week_ magazine, 19 Nov 90 issue, page 4, in an article called
"Microsoft to Beef Up Macro Assembler Compiler," says that MASM 6.0 is in
beta test.  They said it is integrated with Programmer's WorkBench 1.1, is
faster, is a one-pass assembler (no more NOP holes), and has support for
high-level-ish constructs like "if-then-else" and loops.

I have never laid eyes on this product, so I cannot verify any of this.
