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. '`'`'` Ken '`'`'`
