Yep, Turbo C really exists. In Germany. With German documentation. Since
I can't read German, I've made no great pains to investigate further...
It would be nice if Borland would release it here in the US. Apparently
it's the fastest compiler yet, and produces the fastest code, by a pretty
good margin, from the numbers I've seen. And having worked with Turbo C and
Pascal on PCs, I'm pretty willing to believe 'em...
