Thanks Al, I downloaded the assembler just in case. And to Chuck's point, it always
felt like the MSDN distribution was a poorly documented, disorganized mess. I was not
impressed.
The old Turbo C and new Watcom C are available freely for DOS 16 bit and people say very
good things of both.

Schizophrenic MS labeling. The C++ suite is 1.52c, but the
compiler
identifies itself as 8.00c. Crazy.
