Turbo C is definitely my choice. It does a superb job with every program
I have written in it. The price is right too. I find that the librarys for
Turbo C are very complete when interfacing with the hardware, and with the
in line assembly (with masm 5.0) it is a very powerful tool.

Sounds like a fun project. Good Luck.
