- Don't forget to put an "ATTN: Management" (or something like that) in
- the address or it will probably just be tossed out by some data entry
- sales person who doesn't want to get out of his chair to forward it.

-
- I happened to have the C/C++ w/ Win31 SDK upgrade envelope sitting
- arround so I have also sent in a letter in regards to my disapointment
- in MSC no longer supporting OS/2 development. In it I also wrote that
- many other comp.os.os2.programmer subscribers would also be sending
- letters of decline. Ok, this was presumptous of me, but I figure were
- all have at least similar complaints.
-
- Please don't let your fellow OS/2 developers down with your silence!
-
- Work hard and prosper,
