"Let's C" was MWC's low-cost C development system for the PC.  It came 
with a cool spiral-bound manual, and consisted of their C compiler, 
debugger and libraries.  When they first came out with it (I believe it 
was $75, or something like that), they had a contest and I won a free 
copy from them.
