Buy the Tandy 6000 Software Development System (probably arouund $700US).
It has a reasonable C compiler.  Also, you don't have to worry about swapping
and such as the system takes care of all that for you.  One warning:  the
Tandy 6000 is limited to 256K per user process (I sure wish I'd known this
BEFORE buying the machine...).  Also, A Tandy 6000 (or model 16B) with only
512K is usable but not much fun (the system ends up swapping a lot).  If that
is all you have then you should seriously consider buying more memory (you
don't need the memory to be able to use the development system but it sure
is a more pleasant environment if you've got it).
