Superman returns, batman returns, now its turbo's turn??

"Turbo C was a Borland IDE and compiler for C. It was first introduced in 1987 and was noted for its integrated development environment, small size, extremely fast compile speed, comprehensive manuals and low price. In May 1990, Borland replaced the Turbo C with Turbo C++. In 2006, Borland reintroduced the Turbo moniker."

-From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Turbo C 2.01 provided everything you needed, all of the tools, included in one environment. Turbo C 2.01 provided tight integration between the editor, compiler, linker, and debugger. This was the first version of Turbo C to include the integrated debugger. The professional version also included the standalong versions of Turbo Assembler and Turbo Debugger.

Garage days revisited?? Yes, indeed!!
A typical BSOD experienced by OLD SCHOOL coders!
