I have found that Microsoft has the best C. If have used both it and the lattice compilers. Also, since Microsoft controls the operating systems, when it makes a change to DOS (e.g. DOS 5) they will be the first to update their C for it. I have also had very good luck in taking sources from UNIX and compiling them on DOS with the Microsoft Compiler.
