Yeah?  Well, Borland isn't our customer just yet.  Ha!

I don't see any Borland suits at trade shows pushing anything except
goofy buttons that no one wants.  Then again, what are you waiting for?

Microsoft to finish NT on MIPS and Alpha, so I can run Excel and blow
the socks off QPro?  Okay, so who cares if Lotus ported 1-2-3 for IBM
mainframes, but at least they know they can do it on a non-PC system.

Then again, I just MIGHT be still upset at Borland for selling me
SPRINT as the greatest word-processor since sliced bread.  Grrrrrrr!!
