So far, all I've received from them is a cancelled check. I sent them a letter last month asking "What's up?", but they haven't responded. Are they still in business? Is this a rip-off or what? Don Davis ============================================================================== I sent for my JRT pascal some months ago, and finally called and did talk to the folks. Seems that a 39.95 compiler is far to good to be true, and they have been swamped with orders. There is now a 4-6 month delay!! I think this is a bit much for ANY company, but what can you do if they already cashed your check or billed your visa!? I was informed my copy should arrive this month, and in fact, I know of some folks at work who did receive their copies after about 4 months. Needless to say, si *ANY* piece of software worth that long a wait? I leave it to you.... -Rich (jazzy@aerspace)
