In addition, the CD contains a more >>>UNIX-like layout that has been discussed and recommended by the >>>community. The compiler incorporates our Code Fusion >technology which >>>includes optimizations for the Intel Pentium family of >>processors. I am >>>also pleased that this release contains our graphical >>debugger, Insight. >>> >>>The best news is that soon (on October 15) I will be offering the >>>community a chance to get the new CD and docs for $20 off the "street >>>price" or $79 (USD). >>> >>>Here's how you get it: go to http://www.cygnus.com/cygwin , >>click on the >>>"Buy Cygwin" link.
