- This sort of message appears on the net from time to time, and is really a rather
- silly one because anybody who might have any information on such would be
- contractually obligated to not disclose it.

- Not so. I was talking to a Borland service tech a few weeks ago. I was
- complaining about being constrained to the brain dead memory model of
- DOS. He told me to hold on until some time this fall when TP 7.0 would
- be out as it "cures" the problem. I doubt he'd have said anything if his
- boss, Mr. Borland, didn't want him to. BTW, later I mentioned tp 7.0 to
- another Borland techie and he said, it might not be called 7.0 but was
- coming out in late fall.
