Your best bet would be Borland C++ with Applications Frameworks.  It includes
a dos compiler,a windows compiler, OWL classes and a whole bunch of programming
tools.

If you buy Borland C++, you don't get the OWL classes.
If you plan to do a lot of windows programming, these OWL classes
can really help you out.

Turbo C++ for windows includes the OWL classes but you can only do windows
programming.  The reverse is true for Turbo C++ for dos.

If you're wondering what is the difference between Turbo C++ and Borland C++,
keep in mind that Turbo C++ is an entry level compiler while Borland C++ is
a professional compiler.(i.e. advanced programmers)
