A simple, low budget K&R compatible compiler from MIX Software that was available for CP/M and DOS, partially inspired by Turbo Pascal and due to its low price primarily used for educational purposes although originally intended as a general development tool. However unlike its inspiration the MIX C compiler was almost unbearably slow and produced slow executables, which led it to being replaced in 1988 with the Power C compiler.
