Greetings, earthlings.

I am in a process of choosing a pc assembler for a project and it comes
down to two choices: Turbo Assembler (TASM) form Borland and Microsoft
Assembler (MASM) for Microsoft. I personnally inclined to TASM becuase
it supports simplifed segment directives. But on the other hand, MASM 
has been a standard for so long and it is probably safer.

Any opinion on TASM vs MASM? I appreciate any input via e-mail and I will
post a summary upon request.
