Ok.. I did call... and this package is a very limited version of their
already limited compiler.... their full compiler is $900+ ...
And they said they probably won't make certification until 1986.

Another (what I consider) draw back is that they use their own
linker... to be practical, it would be nice to have PC Dos 
linker compatible object files.... 

Inspite the problems that they have now.. it might be worth
waiting to see the certified version.
