	Well Borland has certainly not made it easy for prospective customers
to take a peek at the product. No formal feature list has been made available.
The EEP is an incredible $300! I have broused the article on BC++ for OS/2 
in the OS/2 developer magazine, and I don't recall it being said that there
wasn't going to be an OWL equivalent. 
	I don't know about anybody else, but I guess I will be looking
somewhere else, i.e. IBM's Cset/2 c++.
