Ummm...I only have one thing to say about this:

BWAHAHAHAAAA!

Sorry... :)

Would you mind posting an example of where exactly Borland is faster
than DJGPP? RTM32 is shocking at anything serious I have tried to do
with
it...let alone the fact that it's almost impossible to get the easist
dpmi functions to work effectively. All this on top of the fact that
Borlands compiler version 4.5 sucks at producing code - and when you
turn
on optimizations, its absolutely terrible! And version 5.0 is much,
much worse... (I didn't buy this, my flat mate did... sucker...)
