I'm afraid I can't help one helluva lot with the news about CP/M Plus
for Compupro.  They are so hostile out there that I can't even get any
help with my problem of more immediate concern.  All I can go on is
rumor; so far I haven't even heard a rumor about CP/M Plus.

This morning I called the friendly Godbout folk to see if I could get
some tech help for my CPU-68K problems.  (A friend and I, both with 
a lot of 68000 programming experience, failed to get the thing 
working over the weekend).  I was told by the sweet, young thing on
the other end of the phone that I should contact my dealer.  When I
persisted, telling her that my dealer knows as much about software
as my nine year-old nephew and even less about hardware, she told me
that she'd "put me through this time, but I can get into a lot of
trouble for this."  After a suitable delay, Miss Telephone Manners
advised me that none of the tech people were in, "maybe they're in 
a meeting or something."

So you see Godbout is on my **** list at the moment.  Maybe if I send
a copy of this to Jerry Pournelle, he can give me a technique for 
solving the 'Godbout Reachability Problem.'  In the meanwhile, I guess
I'll dust off the logic analyzer...
