I'm looking for a Modula-2 compiler for my brand new '386 and it seems like
the only choices are Topspeed Modula-2 or Stony Brook.  Is that it?  I need
to get some advice on which compiler is better supported (by the company and
by third parties...assuming there is 3rd party support for Modula-2) before
I can justify plunking down $x for a compiler and environment.

So, any comments/hints/stories on which Modula-2 compiler is the *best* for
a MS-DOS system would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks in advance...email or post any responses.
