- |To be a little bit more precise than Dave Draper's message:
- |
- |This rumour (or rumor, over here) is unfounded.
-
- Glad to see you spotted the trans_atlantic difference.

- |That means that it,
- |and any component of it, may be true, partially true, or completely
- |untrue. That includes even the name "Borland C++ 4.0" which may or may
- |not turn out to be the name of some future product, although it is

- |
- |Now, Duncan Murdoch's message about BP 7.0, which is a shipping
- |product, was accurate. It does have a royalty free 16-bit DPMI DOS
- |extender.
-
- This seems a long way of saying "no comment", but thanks for putting a
- little more humour into it than Dave!
-
- BTW, is support generally available over Internet (cheaper than CI$), or
- do you two just drop in on this newsgroup occaisionally?
