I would be interested in hearing from anyone with experience using the HALO
graphics package.  It looks like a nice package of 150 or so graphics routines
and about 16 drivers for various graphics devices.  I understand that the
driver for the enhanced graphics board will be ready "real soon".

I talked to their distributor, Lifeboat Associates, in NYC and they told me
that there is a $5000 fee in order to distribute their code with an
application that I write !!  He also mentioned that Halo would like an option
to market the product !!  This seems like pretty excessive terms to me.  Has
anyone had any experience with Halo ??
