1.2 meg floppies ???   Does this mean that Microsoft is officially 
abandoning those of us poor folk who still have only 360k drives???

What a bummer.  I might be forced to abandon Microsoft software products
then and turn to Borland or Zortech.

I have been using MS C and QB for some time because they are good packages
and even work well together. I hope they aren't going to dump me! What a bummer
