According to Bill Meyer, TP 1.0 for the Z80 on CP/M
had the same front cover art as for the PC version 1.0, but Philippe
apparently forgot to have anything printed on the spine of the book,
which was plain white, as was the back cover.
First TP 2 Release (using TP 1 manual?). TP 2.0 addendum. TP 2.0 later packaging. Final TP 2 manual - front.
Final TP 2 manual back. TP2 diskette label.
Turbo Pascal 2.00 - One 5.25" diskette plus the following printed materials:
Announcing "TUG" letter
"READ ME FIRST!" note
Manuals:
Reference Manual, 259 pages
Addendum to Reference Manual, Version 2.0 and 8087 Supplement, 33 pages,
Turbo Pascal 3.0 - This appears to have been sold with a variety of manuals. They all have the same ISBN number, but some have the version number printed in the lower left of the front cover. Others don't. Some have the "Turbo" in TurboPascal in red, others white. Some cover styles, in the order in which I think they were produced, follow: The 3.0 original is dated 4/17/85.
System Requirements:

The first style produced is at left below. The gold band in the lower right corner says you need DOS 2.0 or later. The package on the right below is the final version (I think).
Third edition 1986, 9th printing.
(for TP 3) Two 5.25" diskettes with READ.ME file dated 12/11/85 2:36:56pm. Two different diskette styles were produced. I don't know which was first.

Borland Pascal with Objects 7.01 - 7.01 is a "silent maintenance release", i.e. if you bought 7.0 you may have actually purchased 7.01. Check the file times of your installation. 7.00 is dated 10/27/92 with a time of 07:00. 7.01 should be dated 3/9/93 with a time stamp of 07:01. The 7.01 CD is labeled BOR 4838 with inkjet label MA917B10002011. 7.01 eliminates some bugs in the compiler itself (some range and overflow checks with byte and shortint were implemented incorrectly), in the run time library and in the Turbo Vision sources. At the time it appeared (March 1993) you got it from Borland (Inprise) if you were a registered user. The only severe bug which was eliminated was the shift bug (SHL and SHR) for _longint_ operands with shift values between 16 and 31, which are unreliable if the code is executed on a 386+. On some processors they produce garbage -- on some processors they work. The implementors of 7.0 used a 386 opcode which would produce an undefined result under these circumstances. A solution to avoid this bug with 7.0 is to introduce a global variable. Save8086:byte; and surround parts of code using these SHIFT types (SHL or SHR) by Save8086:=Test8086; Test8086:=0; { Your code } Test8086:=Save8086; This will slow down the SHIFTs but they are correct because they will be executed using 16-bit registers with the correct TP 4.0-6.0 implementation.
Bug of the bug fixes in 7.01, according to Jim Higgins:
1. Some range and overflow checks with byte and shortint which were implemented incorrectly in both the RTL and
TurboVision.
2. A bug involving the shift (SHL and SHR) instructions for longint operands with shift values between 16 and 31 gave wrong results when run on a 386/486 (and maybe a Pentium) processor.
3. GetDir did not return an invalid drive error (error 15) when called with a nonexistent drive.
4. For programs compiled with $N+, there was a problem with properly identifying/differentiating true INFs and NaNs.
5. The EXP function when used for very small REAL arguments could signal overflow rather than underflow to zero.
6. There was some sort of problem converting denormals to true zeros when using an 8087 coprocessor.
7. Denormals in EXTENDED format were not properly converted to decimals by the Str and Write routines.
8. Initialization routines did not check properly so as to prevent programs compiled for the 286 with $G+ directive from
running on an 8086/88.
