On a price/performance basis, the MIX stuff is good.  I used to have
versions of the MIX C compiler for both MS-DOS and CP/M.  Both had
bugs, were slow and quirky, and came with a manual with four or five
different indexes so you had to know where to go to find the right
index before you actually found the right page.  But both were cheap
(in every sense) and good value for the money.  The reviews tell me
that quality is now better, but some quirks and slow speed still
remain.

On an *absolute* scale, MIX stuff doesn't compare with Borland stuff.
