I'm intending to purchase a Transputer development system in the not too distant
future, and I would appreciate the advice of those who are already in the field.

What I require is a PC or AT add-on board, an occam-2 compiler, a C compiler and
an assembler.  The board need only have one T4 on it, but with a reasonable
amount of memory (1 MB would be nice).

Does anyone have any recommendations for or against any particular products?
There seem to be about 6 C compilers available from: Pentasoft, INMOS, Renishaw,
3L, Parsec and Norcroft.  Again, comments?

Thanks,

Hubert Matthews
