The damage is done, I'm afraid. .

The Metrowerks  web page
<http://www.metrowerks.com/Discontinued/default.htm>
announces that they have sold the  Intel x86 compiler and debugger
technology to a "third party".  Can anyone tell us who that third party
is? 

Yipes.  I hope it's not MIcrosoft, who would be willing to buy a
competing product just in order to suppress it.

Even if the third party does make a product from this technology, it
will probably not have the CW IDE.  And the IDE is important.
Was important.
