You're all confused. Turbo C++ has indeed been sold bundled with Turbo 
Assembler, Turbo Debugger, and Turbo Profiler. This package was sold 
as 'Turbo C++ Professional'. I don't believe it is currently marketed 
in this way. 

Similar packages still exist for Turbo Pascal, however, called - yes, 
you guessed it - Turbo Pascal Professional.
