What can "dbx" do that Turbo Debugger cannot do better?
Borland has announced the upcoming release of TD 2.0.  This includes
the ability to debug memory resident programs, load and relocate
symbol tables (for device driver development).  A new protected mode
286 version is also included (TD286).  Also, mouse support is great!

Really, if dbx (if such a thing exists for the PC) can do anything
useful that TD cannot, I would like to see a description of those features
posted here.
