Do you actually have this product right now or are you planning on sending in your $75 dollar update slip if someone is willing to pay the right price? >9 disks >4 manuals > >$200 or B.O Oh boy. At least the best offer is in there. Hmm... Let's see... You pay $75 dollars and I pay $200 sounds fair to me. Wait... Do you include shipping? > >Must sell by end of month (jan) Oh yeah, offer ends January 31, 1988. > >(201) 691-7088 > or > picuxa!ssb Well I hate to pick nits about some things, but this seems a trifle out- rageous to me. I don't want to start any wars about whether selling the update and keeping the original product is legal (I know, so why did I bring it up?), but I would feel like shit if I got ripped off on something like this. It's still $69 less than Programmer's Connection price, but if I'm going to spend that much money, I'll pay a little more, become a registered user, and get the thing in a couple days. With the time it took Microsoft to ship my update they'll probably have MSC 7.0 running on an Intel 486 before anyone gets this update. Simply put, be aware of what you're getting and the going price. Todd Goodman DISCLAIMER: I have no connection with Programmer's Connection or Microsoft other than as an extremely satisfied customer, and fairly satisfied customer, respectively. My views are figments of some deep, dark, and dank imagination and no matter what you say I won't be allowed to change them. Oh yeah. Flames cheerfully returned.

> Todd Goodman > > Oh yeah. Flames cheerfully returned. Sounds like a good idea, but I really do have a copy to sell, its really none of your business why I am selling it and the price is good. Do you actually think that I would perform such a criminal act like sell software that I do not have or own. I am doing this out of loyalty to other programmers, not to rip anybody. If you are interested in the compiler don't bother calling. I would not sell it to someone who would accuse me of being a crook. For the rest of you, I have two copies, One I bought and the other one was upgraded from someone whom I work with. Since I use it at work, I did not need he second copy. If you want Microsoft C then this would be a good time to get it. The price is right, you we be doing me a favor, and its no ripoff. Oh and I will ship it to you UPS. Scott Strool
