Many subscribers to this group have been flaming Zortech for their update policy to version 2.06. I too have been waiting for my update to 2.06 since the end of January. I called once and was told that if I bought directly from them (which I did), then it should be sent to me automatically within a week. I called again two weeks later to be told that my name had not been put on the mailing list and that a copy would be mailed to me that afternoon. I called again today (21 February) only to be told that they were waiting for a shipment from London which they expect at the end of this week. I am adding my tale of woe and intrigue for two reasons: one, misinformation has been recurring in this newsgroup, and two, I hope that Zortech can make it. With more vendors, we can all perhaps did a better compiler/environment; Borland and Microsoft don't deserve all of our business. We are loosing sight of solid compiler technology amidst the wave of marketing hype. -- James J.
