From: utzoo!decvax!duke!unc!tucc!jerryr Newsgroups: net.micro Title: Re: sultan.155: DEC Pro-350 Applications Development Article-I.D.: tucc.3355 Posted: Thu Feb 17 08:25:26 1983 Received: Thu Feb 24 04:58:53 1983 I called Whitesmith's, Ltd. the other day to check on their potential support of the 8086 family and found out the following: They will shortly (April...) have a stand alone 'C' development system available for the Pro-350. At about the same time, a version of Idris (their Unix look-alike) will also be available for the Pros. I do not know whether they will retain the menu format. They will be supporting the 8086 family with a compiler, making my choice between the IBM PC and the DEC Pros just that much more difficult. (Release of the compiler is March...April) Any comments are welcome. G. Robinson
