- I am currently using Visual C++ 4.0 and Borland C++ 4.5 under Windows 95
- Both are competent compilers which support 32 bit application development.
- I have not tried VC++ 1.x for 16 bit development. Borland's is the only
- compiler I know of that supports simultaneous 16 and 32 bit development
- in the same environment. I've heard good things about Watcom.

- Word of warning. If you think the Visual C++ standard edition at $99 US
- is a good buy...remember, it doesn't have a compiler, so you can't run
- the programs without Visual C++ installed.
