I only became aware of Digital Mars thanks to D, I must confess.

When I moved away from Turbo Pascal, I started using Turbo C and 
Turbo C++, followed by Borland C++ and eventually Visual C++.

Then at the university I started to use vendor's C and C++ 
compilers of the multiple UNIX systems we had access to.

I used to see adverts for Watcom C/C++, High C/C++ and Zortech 
C/C++ in computer magazines, but never knew anyone that had 
access to them.
