Lattice c compiler amiga4/3/2023 I still remember when a friend of mine who worked for the university computer labs took the trouble of downloading all the floppies (> 20, IIRC) that let you work your way up to having a running version of this weird Finnish thing called "Linux" (the term "distro" didn't exist then). The alternative was to bring a stack of floppy disks to school, and laboriously split anything big into chunks that would fit on a floppy. Downloading something like gcc over that took.a while. While I did have access to the net, it was only over a 1200 bps dialup modem. Power C was a godsend to impoverished students, and as noted by others, the book alone was worth the price they were charging for the whole package. The Borland and Microsoft compilers costs hundreds. At the time, only people at universities and major tech companies had access to the net and what little free software existed.
