So what do us poor folks do who want TC++, TASM, TD, TPROF, but no Windows support? Buy the tools individually? Seems like Borland is going to make more money this way.. While I'm at it, what do TC++ 1.01 users do about the bugs in their compiler? Will we ever get precompiled headers, or do we have to buy the Windows version to get it? I don't know why I'm so resistant to the Windows version, but I'm sure the cost has something to do with it. TC++ Pro was a wonderful deal - I could never have afforded a C++ compiler for a 286 otherwise. And, I think its a delightful package. I just hope that a situation does not evolve where the only way to get support is to buy the Windows version of the compiler..
