From what I have heard Borland C++ is written in MS C and people at
MS are using BC++ until their C++ is ready ! unbelievable, I guess.

I can compile sdk stuff under a command.pif window in windows.  Can I do
the same with BC++?  A similar question is, does BC++ use physical memory
(i.e. ext or exp) or is using the win3 virtual memory when people say it
needs 2mb to run.
What kind of graphics classes come with BC++? Is it just windows or are
there things like objectgraphics in Actor.

IS IT A STABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR REAL WORK or just an experimental tool?!?!

(please don't drill me on OO, I know, I just don't want my development
envt. to crash before my app does! no names mentioned)
