I have to agree that this brings back an awful lot of memories.
Those first late night hacking sessions, learning the intracacies of the PC and it's architecture. Learning what a "register" was and then writing code in C that should have been done in assembly.
I have to admit that I still have my original disks and manuals for most of these compilers on my shelf at home. It's nice to see that they are being made freely available.
I do have to say that I find it interesting that Borland left so many "gaps" in the releases they posted. They may as well have posted every release (TP4, TP5). I can't see as it would have really hurt anything.
Ah well, at least these treasures from the past are available for reminiscing.
