I think I am going to get a C compiler for work where we use NT. At
home here I use Linux and don't want to eat up my hard drive with
Windoze stuff (I have Windows 3.1, though since it is so small)
I saw that Borland is selling a CD with Turbo C, Turbo C++,etc for about
$60. Thats a pretty good deal. I also found some free WIN32
compilers. One based on the GNU gcc and it has an IDE called Rhine.
