It was a "product of the month" in PC Tech Journal back when it 1st came out. I thought it was really impressive, too. Much more viable for the average programmer than the Windows Development kit - Cheaper too ;-) The best part about it was it's ease of adaptation to run just about any graphics card when given enough information. Oh well, I guess people just want Graphics software development on the IBM and its cousins to be harder (and more expensive) than it has to be. >Paul Menon. > > Dept of Communication & Electronic Engineering, > Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, > 124 Latrobe St, Melbourne, 3000, Australia > >ACSnet: rcopm@koel UUCP: ...!seismo!munnari!koel.rmit.oz!rcopm >CSNET: rcopm@koel.rmit.oz ARPA: rcopm%koel.rmit.oz@seismo >BITNET: rcopm%koel.rmit.oz@CSNET-RELAY >PHONE: +61 3 660 2619.
