- I called the pre-support number and confirmed that you *CANNOT* debug
- 32 bit code with what is in the package! You have to buy a debugger from
- another company (FlashTEk?). Unless the 32-bit code is excellent and the
- compiler extremely stable I will probably return it, although I really
- do need a 32-bit compiler whose code is compatible with VCPI & DPMI, and
- Zortech is the best bet to date, I really wish Borland would hurry up
- and get their 32 bit act together.
