I personally like Turbo C++ because of its ease of setup, its versatility
and an awesome standalone debugger (Turbo Debug). I also like the fact
that I can mix C and C++ as I see fit. The new Borland C++ is supposed to
allow Windows development without an SDK. I have had problems with compiler
limitations of MSC 5.1 (ran into the end of the symbol table limit) that
Turbo C compiled without complaint. I have also found the Borland Integrated
Development Environment to be VASTLY superior to the MS Programmer's 
Workbench in terms of access to compiler options and executing third party
programs from within the environment.
