Sad! I have been with MW since "Bronze 5" long before the Pro versions and long before I became a Windoze developper. I have kept both platforms upgraded and intented to continue doing so (well untill now). I read here that Ed Wood has some 30 lisenses, that makes mine no. 31. I fear to ask it but how many CodeWarrior Windoze lisences are out there? Anyway, the CodeWarrior compiler has over a number of years helped me produce better code. So, thanks and good luck for the future. I will continue to lissen to the cw newgroups regularly.
