I assume it was NOT a rejection notice, since they didn't even send me any 
information or ask for any sort of company information.  I would have been
happy to provide a company plan or prospectus, but they didn't even ASK!
   Also- to the guy who complained that if you can't afford $3000 for a dev-
elopment system, you can't afford what it takes to produce software:  It
does not require MONEY do develop good software.  It requires time, talent,
a good idea, and as lot of sweat.  Most of the software startups in the world
did not come from large amounts of venture capital, they came from individuals
with a good idea and the will to see it work.
