I have a CD-player of brand A, an amplifier of brand A, a
cassette-deck of brand B, a tuner of brand C, a TV of brand D, a
pick-up of brand B and a Video-recorder of brand C. I'm glad I can use
records and discs from other manufacturers also.
Moral: you don't have to be good at all facets. Yes, the vendor of my
Unix system must provide me with a decent C compiler. But I may want
to use a different C compiler from a vendor who is specialized at
compiler writing.
Whose C compiler are you using on your PCs? IBM's?
