- You bought the AT&T standard C++ librarys, namely the c-streams, complex and
- some other (tasking I think) stuff, that is not included with the BETA C++
- (but will be in the final release) compiler. IBM choose this approach (ordering
- these lib's seperately), since they would have to pay royalties with every
- BETA CD they delivered. Obviously they would have to raise the price of the
- CD or give us all a x-mas present worth $25 :-)
-
- IBM said, you will get $25 off the final price of the C++ compiler, if you
- bought the AT&T stuff now to use with the BETA.
-
- Any more questions??
