Borland was 'sneak previewing' Turbo Pascal for Windows at COMDEX.  Said that
it would ship sometime in the first half of 1991.  They refused to comment
on when Turbo C++ for Windows would ship.  They did say that they were
committed to supporting Windows and OS/2 but declined to be pinned down on
when.

Doesn't matter what version of Turbo C++ you have, ... you can upgrade to 
Zortech C/C++ by calling 800-848-8408.  Zortech has been shipping a 
Windows and OS/2 compatiable C++ compiler for several months now.  And 
with a '.EDU' in your email address you qualify for a educational
discount.
