Are you byy chance thinking of Phillpe Kahn? The guy that used to be
picured in the Turbo Pascal ads sailing his yacht? He was on top of
the world back then. Borland did some great DOS software: Sidekick,
Quatro, Paradox...  Too bad though about the Ashton-Tate/dBase
acquisition; the beginning of the end.

He is still around: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phillipe_Kahn
