From: Peter Homeier <homeier@AEROSPACE>
There is further information  regarding the MANX C compilers  for the Macintosh
in the current  BYTE, page 474,  clarifying what the difference  is between the
two versions.

The feature states:

"Manx Software Systems has released  two C compiler development systems for the
Macintosh:   Aztec C68K-p  and Aztec C68K-c.   A set of  development utilities,
called the Aztec C68K Toolbox, is also available.

"Aztec C68K-p,  designed for  personal use,  comes with  a C compiler,  a 68000
relocating  macro assembler,  a UNIX  system  library,  an editor,  and a shell
environment.

"The C68K-c  is intended for  commercial applications.   It comes with  all the
features of the  personal version and  with support for  the Macintosh toolbox,
including windows, an overlay  linkage editor, and dynamically relocatable code
with unlimited code size.

"The Aztec Macintosh  C compiler's code size  and execution speeds  are said to
outperform any native development system currently available for the Macintosh.

"The Aztec  C compiler  is also  available  as a cross-development  system from
PC-DOS,  MS-DOS,  CP/M-86,  and Lisa.  Prices begin at $199  for the personal C
system.  Contact  Manx Software  Systems Inc.,  POB 55,  Shrewsbury,  NJ 07701,
