[comp.windows.ms] Naive questions about the world of Windows!

mguyott@tristar.samsung.com (Marc Guyott) (01/23/91)

Hi everyone!  I have a bunch of questions as I am about to be returning to
the world of "Windows" after an 11 month absence.  So rather then waste time
with small talk (pun intended (-8 ) I'll get right to my questions:

1.  Does Zorteck C++ 2.0 support MS Windows 3.0?  How can I reach Zorteck
    to find out more about C++ 2.0?  I have seen (only a quick glimpse) of
    a book about Zorteck C++.  Is this part of the compiler or is this a
    separate book that can be purchased at a book store?

2.  How do I contact MicroSoft to subscribe to their ON-LINE service?  Is this
    service still available and does anyone out there feel it is worth the
    money?

3.  Are there any good (i.e. easy to use but full featured) Windows prototyping
    tools available for doing UI shells to show potential clients?

4.  Are either CompuServe or GEnie worth subscribing to?  If yes what make
    them worth while?

5.  Are QEMM386 or 386MAX useful with Windows 3.0 or are they unnecessary
    (i.e. Windows 3.0 does everything for itself)?

Well that's it for now.  I will collect people's responses and post a follow
up to this note.  Thanks in advance for any feedback.            Marc
