 Two things to mention here. #1. Ed Gressik has extended the deadline
for his GWindows port thru Feb 28th, 1994. I feel this was a generous move
on his part. Christmas is the time for giveing to others, so its not always
easy to justify spending money on yourself. Plus, with electronic fileing,
it shouldn't be too hard to find the cash by Feb<g>.
 The second thing that needs to be talked about is FHL is offering
an unsupported, hacked version of GWindows for 150$. Thats 50$ less than
the Delmar port. BUt what does that 50$ actually get you? It buys your
second 'incomplete' windowing system for your MM/1. Thats a deal?
 FHL claims that purchasers of his port will be able to develope GWindows
compatable software. Yet, his version of GWindows is at least 18 months
old. According to EDELMAR, GWindows has gone thru 13 revisions in that
time frame. Revisions that the FHL port doesn't comply with, will not be
upgradeable to, and you the purchaser will be stuck
dealing with.
 I say for the extra 50$, the Delmar port is vastly superior. We get up
to date documentation, up to date binarys, and realtime support from the
man who actually did the port. FHLs offer looks good on the surface, but
after just 5 mins the questions start tumbleing out.
 What happens if I have have a problem installing it?
 What happens if portions of the software don't work? or work inconsistantly?
 What happens If I wish to run a progam that requires a later revision?
  An unsupported port is just that, unsupported.
