Yep, THINK's Lightspeed Pascal is an excellent product, and I highly recommend
it (make sure you get version 2.0).  I've only fooled around a bit with Turbo
Pascal, but it doesn't even seem in the same league, in my opinion.  Also, as
far as I know, Borland hasn't been giving TP much support at all, and I heard a
_rumor_ that they were going to drop it.

LSP is the way to go for Pascal, in my opinion (unless you _have_ to do MacApp
right away, but since you're starting out, you probably don't.  Maybe THINK
will have MacApp compatability someday... :->).
