- Don't. You'll be sorry. The Zortech C++ product for Intel CPUs is
- good, but the 68000 code generator was botched, and the Mac product is
- lousy. I am a very unhappy owner of this product. I finally had to buy
- Apple's MPW C/C++ compiler.

- Symantek now owns Zortech, and hasn't done much with the Mac product,
- although there are rumors of a Symantek C++/Bedrock product some time next
- year.
