Pete,

tell your friend: "why use c? Use Smalltalk-80, a ParcPlace Systems 
product. THE original window system."

It is available on 80386 MS-DOS since
dec 12th, 1988 in the US from ParcPlace Systems, 2400 Geng Road,
Palo Alto, CA, 94303 and since dec 19th, 1988 for Germany, BeNeLux,
Austria and Switzerland from us.

Certainly you get all standard graphics in the standard system.
A object oriented Speadsheet package ASP (a Xerox XSIS Product)
can do business graphics in spreadsheet sells. If you prefer to have
you business graphics integrated into an Hypermedia System, use
The Analyst (XSIS), available on MS-DOS soon.

For more information: Xerox Special Information Systems, PO Box 5608,
Pasadena, CA 91107-0608, in Europe available from us.
