I have used TopSpeed for quite a while and within its limitations it is excellent.
It's 16 bit only does a respectable job on interrupt procedures. I have been
happy with it writing 16 bit os/2 non-PM aps. As far as I'm concerned the biggest
flaw is the questionable commitment to the compilers by the TopSpeed.

There seems to be a couple new OS/2 compilers coming out but do not know much about details.
