OK, you have to buy the stuff directly from the European vendor.
If enough people in the US try to buy the compiler, the guys at Borland 
will change their minds (eventually).

I just got an add from a German magazine called "ST Magazin" from September
1989. It says that a company called Borland GmbH in Germany (they changed
their name is suppose) is selling the package for some 228 DM. ($100)
The developers version including an assembler and symbolic debugger
costs 342 DM. ($160).

The address of this company is:
BORLAND GmbH
Lindwurmstrasse 88
D-8000 Muenchen 2
Telex 5212637 mcm d
Telefax (089) 779339
Tel. (089) 72010-201/202
All this is in West-Germany.
Remember that these numbers are only valid from within W-Germany.
I think that you have to leave the initial 0 (of 089) away when you call
from any other country than W-Germany.
