   After the very favorable response to my first message, I will be
buying OS/2 and probably using it be late June.  I now have several
other questions that I can't seem to get answered.  
   First,  will Turbo C run in the dos session (both the integrated
environment and the standalone compiler)?  If not does will the
programs created by it (if the compiler is run under MSDOS) run in
the DOS box?  
   Second, what would be a good choice of compilers for learning 
Presentation Manager?  I have heard that there is a Modula-2 
compiler for about $100 that will let you create PM compatible
code, is this true?  And, If I get really rich, will Microsoft 
C 6.0 create PM code, WITHOUT any addons?
    And lastly, where are the archives sites for OS/2 sources and
binaries?  I have bitnet and internet access, but prefer to use
Anonymouse FTP on the internet.
     Any help will be greatly appreciated.
