This article looks back at Turbo BASIC, a BASIC compiler originally created as BASIC/Z by Robert “Bob” Zale and later sold by Borland for MS-DOS in 1987. It highlights the product’s IDE-based workflow, compatibility with GWBASIC programs, and related toolbox add-ons for database, editor, and communications development before the line was discontinued and later continued as PowerBASIC.
