I am going to buy a C compiler for my PC at the beginning of the year.
Unfortunately, I don't have the $$$ to blow on something like Microsoft
or Lattice, but I still want a decent compiler.  My budget for the
purchase is $100 (yes, I know it isn't a lot) and from looking through
Byte, Computer Language, and Dr. Dobbs, I have found these compilers
for $100 or less:

	1) Datalight C
	2) MIX C
	3) C'Prime by Manx
	4) Let's C by Mark Williams
	5) ECO-C88 by Ecosoft

I have written these companies for more info about their products.  But I
am wondering if I have left out any compilers that are in this price range.
If anyone knows of any I have, please let me know.  If anyone has comments
about any of those listed above or any I have forgot, please let me know.
I plan to do a big summary after its all over, which I think would be good
for those of us who can't afford the more expensive products.

Thanks a bunch,

Keith
