Well, I started off on Logitech (CP/M-86, DOS and OS/2). It died.

Used FTL (CP/M-80, MS-DOS, heard of various 68K variants) for a while 
(still do for some embedded work). It died.

The Borland/Echelon (CP/M-80) compiler successfully died without my 
assistance.

At present I'm using TopSpeed/Clarion for PC and embedded work (386 
protected-mode). It may not be the best (says he to avoid arguments- it's 
been a long day) but there is a fairly large community of users. Be 
warned, though, that whilst it supports OS/2 v1 at present that continued 
development in that area is uncertain.
