The reason I am submitting this, the talk of porting Chromium to VC2015 reminded me that the PC compiler space used to be incredibly diverse. Borland C, Metaware High C, Microsoft C, etc. Metaware used to have a great compiler (as benchmarks indicate), they were local here in Santa Cruz, rumors were they prayed during the work day, but their compiler back in the day was pretty darn good. Then they disappeared. Borland was also local to this area. That era of competition and innovation was really requite interesting to be apart of.
