Any takers? > > Chris Flatters > cflatter@nrao.edu I would be VERY interested in exactly the same setup for my home machine. Is there any hope of having a CHEAP eiffel license for home users? At the moment the eiffel licenses are cheap for commercial users (in relation to most other stuff) but still too expensive for home users. If enough home users get to use eiffel then it is bound to make it into many more companies so that giving eiffel away to home users should make commercial sense! Mike Chapman
