I don't think that is quite fair. For example, Turbo Debugger is a LOT
better than CodeView. And the beta-test of their new C compiler (the one
with the -P option which will compile C++ 2.0) comes a Turbo Debugger
that knows about classes and inheritance. Unlike Zortech, it has a
virtual 386 mode driver (or unlike Microsoft, for that matter--you need
a third-party add-on, Magic CodeView, to run CV in a virtual machine on
a 386.) Are you listening, Walter?
I think Borland is really going to beat Microsoft this time around.
