I know both Compilers (but not TC++) and I am using C 6.00 now. MS C is
more powerfull. It's not some spot features, it's the overall
functionality. Also, it allows development for MS Windows (with SDK) and
OS/2 and OS/2 PM (without additional SDK!). Optimization is better.
This costs it's price: much more used disk space and it is slow.

I have tried a TC 1.0 long time ago and had problems compiling sources
from Unix systems, MS C 5.1 was more reliable at this time. But this may
have changed for TC 2.0 now, but I doubt.

If you plan to use OS/2 in the future, it is probably better to get MS C
now.
