Unbundled products? Pah!
It's just another way the vendors have found to screw the customer.

Now they're doing it with the C compiler (like Sun) which is, to many
people, an integral part of the system.  I know that it'd be nice for
those customers who don't need a compiler, but I've heard of a price
reduction in the main product when something is unbundled.
So everyone loses!

The correct answer (of course) is to get hold of GNU GCC.
It doesn't cost, it's high quality, and if you run it on all
then platforms you have, aids portability somewhat.

Nuff said,
