There are a lot more than just two major C compilers for MSDOS. Indeed, professional programmers have at least 10 full-featured C compilers to choose from, and late-comer Borland is not always considered to be amongst the best for professionals. For the hobbyist who only wishes to "cheap-out" on a toy C compiler, Turbo C is fine, but, if you make a living at programming, stop and take a look before you waste $139.95. ...!gatech!stiatl!todd Todd Merriman * 404-377-TOFU * Atlanta, GA
