I also, just received the offer from bordland for the v4.0 upgrade.
It looks like it has some impressive features.  With online help, and
user interactive pull down windows, it should be easy to use.   I am
an avid fan of turbo pascal.  The only option I wonder about is the
"high degree of compatibility with 3.0".  Just what is high compatibility.
     
Although, 27,000 LPM is when run on an 8 mhz AT.  Still its impressive,
our mainframe here can compile pascal at about an average of 60-70000 LPM.
     
Also, does anyone know if bordland has a modula-2 compiler ?  I asked on the
other modula-2 conf and no one has responded.
