Subject: BDS C for systems programming

SSteinberg shouldn't toss around "everyone at Mark of the Unicorn agrees"
-- he only talked to one of us.  I second Lauren's clarification of
his remarks: it depends on what you mean by "systems" programs.  BDS C
is very useful for a lot of low-level hackery that is certainly in the
grey area between systems and applications.  You couldn't write a BIOS
in it, but you certainly could write something of the level of a BDOS.
The result would be large and slow, compared to assembly code, but
what do you want?
