If? Yes, I saw a demo of the beta for Borland C++ for OS/2 at the
Bay Area OS/2 meeting, and it looks as if it should be pdg (pretty
damn good) if they address the "performance issues" (ie. I liked
the features, but debugging looked glacial). One nice approach is
the use of colour in an intelligent fashion - as an instance,
you can highlight code vs. comments; this makes it trivial to
spot trivial (in cause, not in effect) typo's that inactivate
what you thought was code.

As to when, it was still "end of year, but probably early next year"
or something close to that. Call Borland for more info.

They also were doing a "Bug Hunt" on the Saturday following the meeting,
allowing people to come in and pound on the software on as wide a 
variety of hardware as they could muster (and whatever people brought).
Did anyone attend this?
