[limited to na distribution 'cuz it doesn't deserve any more than that:]
enter (-: GRIN :-) mode:
It is a widely-held opinion that anything Microsoft delivers as
Version X.0 (1 <= X <= infinity) is their way of distributing BETA
versions of the product.
In which case, the 2.5 of their QuickC is to be preferred over 2.0
as a production release would be preferred over a beta release.
