If the press release doesn't address all your questions, by all means ask
about anything that does not seem clear.

The announcement will contain some of that. As to the comparison: What we
are comparing is a very robust, complaint, low-cost, well supported compiler
(Comeau C++) to a value added, IDE'd compiler (Borland C++). Which to get
depends upon what you are looking for.
Greg –
Thanks for the reply – I've saved it this time 8^). Is the press release
you mention upcoming or already available? I'll pass on this information to
the other parties involved (in fact, you may have directly or indirectly
communicated with them already). I already own the latest version of SAS/C,
so that's no problem. I'll check out the release as soon as I find out
where it is 8^). Thanks …

The press release for Comeau C++ 3.0 With Templates for AmigaDOS is now
available. I put it in "Hot New" Section 3.
Greg,
Due to the unique circumstances, I don't think that my upgrade fits the
"50% of the purchase price you paid" <grin>. Does it put me in the 50% of
the current purchase price category?

If I am correct, you won your copy of Comeau C++ 2.1 due to the roll of an
electronic dice in a formal CO I gave about C++ (time for another one??).
I'm not out to bust chops ;-), but what do all you losers thing?
Should we upgrade Peter for free since he won the toss on the other version,
or should be charge him double?
Double!!!! Don't I get the special discount for the terminally unemployed
<grin>?
Peter
You mean the Amiga developer discount, right? 🙂
Yeah, that's the one!
Gee, I'm not working – maybe I should become an Amiga developer, too!!
Kelly,
being in the ranks, I'm thinking along the same line <grin>
Brian
Well, nobody has come to your defense yet? 😉
Apparently not. I wonder what sort of appeal would work. ;^)
>I wonder what sort of appeal would work.
Beats me. Why not tell us a good joke and see what you fair from that?
>Why not tell us a good joke…
That will NEVER work, I'm horrible at jokes. ;^)
Peter
Actually, I think that you should charge him tripple and use the extra money
to send me and Steve Ahlstrom a copy 🙂 :-).
Ah, come on John, gimme a break. ;^)
Peter
Well, I didn't see you offering to share it with me, now did you? Next thing
I know, you will tell us that you also won the publisher's clearing house
sweepstakes… Enjoy.
Share it? I don't think Greg or ATT would be too happy about that. ;^)
If I win the publisher's clearing house sweepstakes I'll buy you as many
copies as you want!
Peter
Go on, be nice to the guy. Send him an upgrade for free…

Thank you for your support! (Aren't I supposed to hold up a bottle of wine
at this point in the commercial) ;^)
Peter
Finally a ray of hope. Ok, we will do such. However, the free 3.0.1
upgrade is going to be double for him. 3.0.2 is going to be triple, and 4.0
is going to be quadruple.
Great. Do _I_ win a copy for being such a nice guy? (duck, fast)

Sure, hang on while I photostat the disk….. 😉
I guess I'll be using 3.0 for a LONG time ;^)

Sound like you got your package. Great stuff, no? 😉
Actually, I didn't get the package yet. The shipping address you had was
for the place I worked until last Nov. A friend saw it come in addressed to
me and put it aside for me. I don't know when it showed up, but he called
me about it today. I have to get down that way and pick it up.
Peter
>shipped to last place
Boy, you're one trouble maker! 😉
