I uses SuperStor and I have no problems with Borland C++ 3.1. If you plan on using
the Windows environment remember that if you set up a permenent swap file that 
it must be placed on a unStacked volume. I basically have my whole hard drive
set up for compression except for this swap file space and I have had no 
problems.

I run everything from Borland Programming tools to DOS-based 3D CAD programs
and I've never had a lick of problem. I takes a bit of time setting up the
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files so that I don't lose tons of memory but its
well worth it.
