HANSON) Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.programmer Subject: Microsoft and Dos 5 Message-ID: <1991Jun20.152652.22193@fcom.cc.utah.edu> Date: 20 Jun 91 14:20:46 GMT Sender: news@fcom.cc.utah.edu Reply-To: dhanson@cc.utah.edu Organization: University of Utah Computer Center Lines: 11 Does anyone know if Microsoft as an independent software developers group or anything similiar where they distribute information about operating systems prior to public release, I know that HP has one, but I haven't found any such thing at Microsoft? What we are most concerned with is getting a copy of new operating systems (i.e. Dos 5) before, or at least at the same time as our customers do instead of waiting until release and we start getting calls from our customers about compatiblity problems.
