Good. Thanks. Sorry I missed this item myself.

Not yet:-) But I may write A+ code for mainframe on my PC.
And the availability of A+ for this exotic (to me) platform increases
(well, a little bit) number of potential customers. I remember in about
1994-95
I had 2 year contract to write in APL2 for mainframe. Never seen the
mainframe itself. All code had been developed under OS/2 on PC:-)

Another platform-dependent question. Did you install A+ on your PowerMac (OS
X)
and what is your impression?

Sasha.
