- I can only speak for this side of pond. I bought MS C/C++ 7.0 in July and
- the kit came in two books. The C/C++ docs in one; the SDK stuff in the
- second. By the way, my copy came with 386MAX bundled at no extra charge (it
- was inside the MS crate. Which reminds me you will need a big book shelf to
- hold all this stuff we are talking in excess of 10,000 pages of
- documentaion. And there is still stuff for the PWB that has no printed copy
- (eg extension to PWB).
