NO!!!! Why? Because we're too cheap to license the C compiler. We do have 
HLASM. Now, if they want to make the C/C++ come for free, I'd jump for joy. We 
had a license at one time. But a manager who was struggling to save his job 
decided that eliminating all "non-critical" software was the way to go. So the 
C license went. Followed shortly thereafter by the manager.
