I never though that I would post something to this group.

Today I met a representative of Borland Canada.  She was givin demos of 
products such as Paradox and Quatro,but also had on display Turbo C++.
I asked her about the new version, and she confirmed to me that on the
12th of February, the new version of 'Borland Turbo C' (or something
similar) will be released officially.  It will not be called 'Turbo C++'
but 'Borland Turbo C' (or B.T. C++).  She did mentioned that there
will be good prices for the packages following the release, and that
I could purchase it in early march.  It will contain everything needed
for Windows development.

I printed this article and showed it to her, and she told me to expect
something similar for the new version.

BTW.  Isn't the ms in 'comp.windows.ms' for MicroSoft?  Does this mean
that a new group called 'comp.windows.borland' will be created? :)
