	I have used the Stony Brook Modula2 Compiler and I like it.  One
	of the best things about it from my point of view is that it supports
	MS Windows programming.  It also works with OS/2, in fact when you
	buy the Professional Compiler (i.e. the optimizing compiler) you
	really get four compilers: QuickMod for DOS, QuickMod for OS/2,
	Optimizing Compiler for DOS, and the Optimizing Compiler for OS/2.
	All of their compilers can be run from an environment which is 
	helpful and quite nice to work with.  The compiler is fast and produces
	some of the best code found for both Modula 2 and C compilers at
	least according to some of the magazine reviews.  

	I have not had a chance to try out the JPI Modula 2 but the Stony Brook
	compiler is a lot better than the Logitech compiler.  In fact I heard
	a rumor that Logitech was going to stop producing its own compiler and
	sell the Stony Brook compiler instead.

	In general I really like the Stony Brook compiler.  If you have any
	questions about it I will be happy to try to answer them.
