- Thats news to me. I speak to Borland almost twice a week and I
- would have heard of that long since. I think someone is feeding you
- a line to get you to be quiet and go away.
-
- Another thing to consider, it would be disasterous from a marketing
- standpoint for Borland to ship a .1 upgrade and the cut a major
- revision right on the heels of the previous release without having
- completed servicing the original orders, which by the way are
- backlogged several days due to very high demand.
