	I've just spent a few frustrating days trying to get a hold of
someone at AT&T who knows anything about C++.  Some of the funnier lines
heard over the phone - "What is a program?",  "Is this for a computer?",
"What is a VAX?".  oh boy.

	Anyway, nobody at AT&T knows how to sell C++ to run on Suns/Vaxen/
Encore and the like - they could only refer me to Zortech.  oh boy.

	What's the story here?  Has AT&T gotten out of the business and do
you strictly have to deal with 3rd party vendors, or have I not yet reached
the person who really knows what is going on in there?

	Any help would be appreciated.
