- Yes, Borland writes all the Turbo products, and no, Turbo C++ isn't
- the same thing as Borland C++.
-
- Borland C++ is the 'professional' package. It includes extra
- optimization, extra debugging, a profiler, works both under Windows
- and on DOS to produce either Windows or DOS executables, etc. LOTS of
- differences, many of which I'm probably not even aware of.
-
- If you don't know the difference, the Turbo C++ package is probably
- what you want.
