With the release of Turbo C++ 1.0 (in 1990), the two products were folded into one and the name "Turbo C" was discontinued. Turbo C 2.0 was also released (in Germany only) for the Atari ST the program was not maintained by Borland, but sold and renamed PureC. It was also available bundled with Turbo Assembler and Turbo Debugger. Version 2.0 (late 1988) featured the first "blue screen" version, which would be typical of all future Borland releases for MS-DOS. This version introduced the header file (which provided fast, PC-specific console I/O routines). It was shipped on five 360 KB diskettes of uncompressed files, and came with sample C programs, including a stripped down spreadsheet called mcalc.

It included more sample programs, improved manuals and bug fixes. Version 1.5 (January 1988) was an incremental improvement over version 1.0.

It allowed inline assembly with full access to C symbolic names and structures, supported all memory models, and offered optimizations for speed, size, constant folding, and jump elimination. Like many Borland products of the time, the software was bought from another company (in this case Wizard C by Bob Jervis ), and branded with the "Turbo" name.
Version 1.0 (May 13, 1987) offered the first integrated development environment for C on IBM PCs. While Turbo Pascal was successful with hobbyists and schools as well as professional programmers, Turbo C competed with other professional programming tools, such as Microsoft C, Lattice C, and Watcom C. Turbo C has similar properties to Turbo Pascal: an integrated development environment, a fast compiler (though not near the speed of Turbo Pascal), a good editor, and a competitive price. Borland followed up that success by releasing Turbo Basic, Turbo Prolog, and in 1987, Turbo C. In the early 1980s, Borland enjoyed considerable success with their Turbo Pascal product and it became a popular choice when developing applications for the PC.
