At my school they use Borland C/C++, and my friend and I try to use DJGPP
whenever we can. The reason my school wont use it is they would have to train
the teachers with DJGPP, and that would cost more money that it would save.

They've also already bought the Borland C/C++ compiler and it works find for
them, and they can't find a reason to trash it and throw away their investment.
