Turbo Pascal did not die, it was reborn as Delphi and only decreased its market share because many key developers ended up going to Microsoft, while Borland management decided enterprise customers were more important than indies.
What year did Borland make that call? I remember my HS programming class in the late 1990s used a Borland compiler and development environment. I don't recall it being "enterprisey" at the time. That being said I was in HS, and likely associated the word "enterprise" with starships more than big companies.
Hmm... I first touched a Borland compiler in the 1998-99 school year. I had programmed before that, but it was my first time programming a GUI with the Win32 APIs. I made a Battleship game with a very rudimentary AI so you could play against the computer. Not sure if Borland was good or evil at the time, but those memories will certainly endear me to them.
