Templates are C++ 3.0 spec.  MS C++ is at 2.1 spec.  For templates they
supply a "preprocessor" which you run on your code with templates and then
run the compiler.  MS position is that spec 3.0 (i.e. templates) are 
"controversial".

However, Do you use exceptions? Part of 3.0 spec.  Does Borland 3.0 have exceptions.
No....
