Response to article on MicroPower/Pascal. I have called Mr. Neitzel and answered his questions. For the benefit of others out there, here is what we discussed. One point of clarification: Mr. Neitzel does in fact have the MicroPower/Pascal documentation. He does not have documentation for his welder application. There is a 3-day seminar offered at the Atlanta Support Center. This seminar includes a lab and covers the MicroPower/Pascal product by starting with a review of Pascal and progresses into the extensions we have added for realtime programming. The seminar is offered once a month. Digital IS standing behind MP/P. It is being actively maintained and developed. V2.4 began shipping last week and we are currently working on V2.5. V2.5 will be the 12th release of MicroPower/Pascal since its introduction in 1982. Regards, Mark E. Naylor MicroPower/Pascal DevelopUCP (

This puts the price in the area of $10,000, which is well beyond our means for training 2 people. If there are other people in the Colorado area who might want to take this seminar and split the cost, please call me at : 303-966-7203 Rich Neitzel
