I ran Borland's Turbo C++ on SoftPC and to my surprise, it worked.  I'm
pretty impressed with SoftPC.  We were writing an article on Turbo C++
and needed to get an electronic image of the IDE screen, so we ran
Turbo C++ under SoftPC and copied the screen to a Macintosh graphic
utility.  Turbo C++ compiled and debugged and ran programs successfully.
The biggest problem I encountered was that the mouse cursor was invisible
when the screen was cast into black and white on the Mac.
