I received a notice from Borland last week regarding Turbo C++, Debugger,
Profiler, Assembler.  It was not an upgrade notice, but an offer to "all
registered owners of a Borland product" to purchase Turbo C++ Professional
(includes Assembler, Debugger, Profiler) for $125 + $5 shipping.  I sent my 
order in last Wed and await my new Turbo C++ Professional.

I don't have the glossies in front of me now, but they touted such features
as a customizable integrated environment (multiple windows, use your favorite
editor, etc...) and debugger understands and displays object hierarchies and
has an "undo" feature allowing you to back out of an execution sequence.
This last feature is a pretty neat trick; I don't recall that they mention 
any limitations on the "run backwards" feature, so I don't know how much
backing out you can really do.

regards, Larry
