- I just got off the phone with Borland where the engineer agreed with
- me, QPro is a real resource hog. He was fairly unabashed about that so
- I pointed out that I thought that it wasn't necessarily a desirable
- feature. He agreed and said that the problem can become acute if you
- do much with graphics in QPro or other Windows programs when QPro is
- running. He asked for my telephone number and said that Borland was
- aware of the problem and might have some solution in the next "little
- while".

- Nice program but I'm not impressed with its appetite for resources.
