Good afternoon/afternoon/evening netters !

I have several questions concerning programming in 386 protected mode.

Does anyone have any experience of either the Intel 386 C code builder, 
or the (significantly more expensive) Watcom C8.0/386. Any feelings
for reliability, quality of support etc ? What produces the best 
code ? Or should I be thinking of something totally different ?

The requirement does not necessarily need a DOS extender, just a 
protected mode environment, since the application will never have any 
need to use DOS facilities itself. Do any of the above or other 386 
development tools available provide such a thing, or do you always
need a DOS extender ?

It is possible to do interrupt handling in protected mode with either
of the above kits, or do they still hand all that on to the DOS
extender ?

Many thanks in advance,
