Summary: A "rumor" about development tools


	A recent PC Week RUMOR Central quote:

	"...Staggered by repeated body blows to the semiconductor business,
Intel has quietly ported the assemblers and compilers it uses for development
work with its microprocessors to the PC to sell as end-user products. Until
now, the compilers and assemblers have only been used in conjunction with a
$30,000 Intel super-micro system for manufacturers of systems using Intel
processors.
	The PC products, which are said to be more powerful than any on the
market, will be available by October for about $700  per package. Spencer
expects Intel to release assemblers for its 8087, 80287, 8086, 80286 and
80386. He expects compilers for PLM, possibly C, and FORTRAN."

	The usual disclaimers apply here, I do not work for Intel, PC Week
(or any one else for that matter) and the opinions expressed herein are a
direct quote and belong to someone else.
