We have a dozen old projects built in Borland C++ Builder 5.  They work, but 
we anticipate needing to perform some tweaks to them over the next few 
months.  All of the development has been done on one laptop, and that laptop 
is about to give up the ghost.

We don't have the install disks for version 5, and it sounds like converting 
the projects to a modern version is probably not going to work seemlessly. 
How can we eaily move development to a new machine?  The projects make use 
of many 3rd party components, which I'm guessing will be a substantial 
issue -- am I correct in that?
