Sorry to say, Power C was pulled from the market by Spinnaker who has gone MSDOS (They 'owned' the Better Working label). It is superior in many respects over Super C, documentation *NOT* being one of those points :) I have talked to a few people at Spinnaker about Power C but I fear it is locked away forever, they do not want to support it (and I am not sure if they can let anyone else have it either). Therefore, by the Rule of Disappearing Support, I rule Power C to be a de facto Public Domain Entity and thus copyable by any one without recourse ... But then I could be wrong, too :)
