I have recently found out about MINIX and I am probably going to buy the
book and give it a shot.  However, I was wondering how efficient it is to
compile it using Turbo C.  I have noticed all these fixes posted, and I
know that in Turbo C, the creating of a child process halts the parent
process until the child is done executing.

Is there a compiler (like possibly Microsoft C) that will allow the parent
to continue processing at the same time as the child process?  Also, does
the offer in the back of the book, for the binaries and source code, include
a compiler?

I'm just sort of curious.
