 There is a review of it in this weeks PC WEEK magazine.  Price: $199US

 There is also COBOL and FORTRAN versions in the works by Microsoft.
 I believe the FORTRAN version is out already, being reviews in either
 the same PC WEEK for in a latest issue of INFO WORLD.

 There also indicated that Windows 4.0 was (rumored?) to have a BASIC
 SDK as a standard part of the package.
