  I'm posting this for a friend who doesn't have net access.  Please e-mail
any responses.

  I've been reading about a new object oriented language for the PC
called ACTOR by the Whitewater Group.  It looks neat, but I'd like to
hear from someone who is actually using it.  Specifically:

      -How does it compare to Objective C and C++?
      -What is performance / productivity like on large applications?
      -What is their support like?
      -What do you think of it?
