The new C++ packages are supposed to supersede the existing C++ and in addition provide Windows 3.0 tools to write true windows software, for which purpose the MS Windows SDK is NOT needed. It's also speculated that the price will still be competitive. So it seems that there's no point buying Turbo C++ anymore, at least for those who use windows. The software is supposed to ship anytime now, such as in a week or so.
