- Hello,
-
- I haven't spent much time in MS WINDOWS but need to start writing some
- apps for Windows For Workgroups 3.1 and Windows 95 and probably Windows
- NT. I am used to Linux and GCC so am not familiar with the various
- C/C++ compilers for windows. It looks like Turbo C++ will only handle
- 16bit apps. Since I can get an academic discount, the pricing isn't
- really that critical. I'm just looking for ease of use. The Turbo C++
- looks good on the outside but the propaganda didn't really explain its
- limitations.

- Regards,
