It is quite depressing to watch all those C++ compilers come out for
the PC and then have to go back to our own bare cupboards, isn't
it?  I suspect that if Symantec doesn't hurry, some other company
will see they could wrap up the Mac C++ market pretty quickly.
Maybe someone out there could convince Borland there's money to be
made from MacTurbo C++...  Or maybe there isn't all that much money,
after all.

Of course, there's always MPW...
