Thanks to everyone who gave me news about C++ for the Mac.  So far
here is what I have found:

	1) There is C++ for Mac.  You need MPW, MPW C, MPW C++
	   Total cost for all three is in the neighborhood of $400.00

	2) There are NO student discounts available.

#2 really affects me. :-( $400 is totally out of my reach as a student
and even if it was, there is no way to justify the cost.  So it looks
like I will be using the SPARCstations for what they do best and using
my Mac for what it does best.

From my understanding MPW C++ is a complete implementation of the AT&T
source with bug fixes.
