Hi Fred, Hi @ all
PureBasic will now finally comercial distributed by
http://www.topos-verlag.de?!? I am a bit wondered, because on some old threads people discussed the stuff with the rumours of a comercial german distributed PureBasic version and there competition advert!
I am a bit wondered to read the news not on this forum (by fred), futuremore i got the info with a hint by andre and reading the pdf carefully in most parts! The german pdf is really good in my opinion with all the explaining examples!
But why was the comunity not informed about this cooperation between fred and this company? (or have i sleeped!?

)
Futuremore i cant really understand the big price difference... Order PB from fred will cost (as info on the home site) 59 Euro and when ordering it as Boxed version you have only to pay 24,99 Euro?? Have a look to:

I like to see PureBasic as comercial product... But i have some doubts when seeing this (in my opinion small unknown company) and i am only a bit wondered about the public relations to the comunity...
I wish Fred to get a big market with his great language! Good Luck!
