As an employee, he worked on Turbo M2. Borland decided that Turbo Pascal was too similar to M2 already, so they didn't market it. A clause in their contracts says something to the effect that they can leave with software that Borland decides not to market. So Jenson left. This may or may not be the truth. I think I gleaned this from BYTE, awhile back. Looking at the user interface, though, I believe it. Scott Hess,
