well, at one time Borland were doing a "scholar purchasing program" which
allowed students etc. to buy Turbo Pascal for around 30 quid - I know 'cos I
did.  I now use THINK Pascal 'cos it's supported, and has a *wonderful*
debugger.  THINK Pascal used to be available on Educational discount - but I'm
not sure how much it would set you back now, except my local AppleCentre lists
it for 125 quid (+VAT).
