From: Randy Cole <COLE@USC-ISIB.ARPA> I happened to talk to someone at Lattice a few days ago and thought I'd pass along what I found out. Lattice has added a number of features, including 8087 support (see Marco Papa's note). Lattice now sells directly to customers, and their price is the same as Lifeboat's ($500), although I'm not sure if you get the library manager if you order from Lattice. I have found the people at Lattice very helpful and those at Lifeboat less than helpful. Lattice is currently shipping V2.12, Lifeboat 2.10, and Microsoft 2.04 or so. Lattice will update disks (if you bought the compiler directly from them) for $45 and the manual (ditto) for $30. Of particular interest is their offer to update compilers and manuals for those who bought from Lifeboat or Microsoft for $100. I assume you would have to send them your disks or other proof of purchase. I'm not sure about Lattice's address, but their phone number is (312) 858-7950. I am not associated with Lattice in any way. Randy Cole -------
