You'll soon find out if it's correct. They maybe want to continue selling 4.0 until they actually ship 5.0... If you need VM with THINK C, you're gonna be sorry if you switch to MPW. True. (And it IS a chunk of change, too...) No it's not. I did the switch in 45 minutes. (Granted, I have a lot of UNIX experience...) plus an additional two hours for porting the project I was working on. (No, that was NOT nethack :-) If I'll go back ? Well, if THINK C works with A/UX and system 7, maybe. Birdie tells me they're trying to stay competetive in the compiler area now, since they already have an environment. (And I hope they include the online stuff the just released as well. It's cool, but could use volume VI as well...) -- Jon W{tte h+@nada.kth.se - Speed !
