They "unveiled" it yesterday, at a programmer's conference in Santa
Clara.  The official title is just "Borland C++"; the single package
supports both DOS and Windows.

From what I saw, it's the same basic programming model, but all the
tools are slicker and faster.

If you're anxious to get your mits on it, you might try ordering it
directly.  Judging from the upgrade prices I mentioned, they heard
previous complaints about pricing, so maybe they've cleaned up their
act in shipping too.

Incidentally, the package include the Whitewater Resource Toolkit,
which currently sells for about $160, slightly more than the upgrade
price.
