subject: What compiler to purchase

Hey everybody.  I'm in the market (for christmas) to get myself an
OS/2 compiler.  I've heard that Borland's version has many problems,
but I've been using Borland over on the DOS side for about ten years. 
I've heard of IBM CSet++ and VisualAge++, and don't know one bit of
difference, much less what either or both have for features.  

Here's what I'm looking for off the top of my head:

C++ compiler 
Built-in/Seperate assembler
Support for DLL generation/usage
Support for 32bit code generation
Support for SOM objects
Support for OLE (I doubt that they would do that since it's
microsoft...but, if it's avaiable, it'd be nice) Support for multimedia
(including sound, CDROM, and graphics/video) Most importantly: An
intergrated development environment

Can whoever knows of what compilers out there will suit be well please
let me know?  I would be *MOST* appreciative!

Thanks in advance,
The Dane [Team OS/2]
