I hear that SoftPC has hit a sales calm over the belief that the current 2.0 version is useless and the 3.0 version is the one to have. Alot of this is based on the fact that graphics speed is horrible. But now there's a new reason, SoftPC doesn't run Windows 3.1. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the lastest versions of Borland's and Microsoft's development tools don't work either. There's also some new real-world software that doesn't work either. Insignia, picture of a company getting slaughtered by new announcements. Scotty
