Borland Developer Network Museum
A simple site which allows you to download "antique" software, for example there are several versions of Turbo Pascal downloadable here. Cool.
I used to use Turbo Pascal at uni, as a "close enough" dev environment for Modula 2; the latter only ran on uni machines that were very difficult to get time on, so I'd code at home in Turbo Pascal, dial in to uni, download the source, and manually port (not too difficult) to Modula 2. The pain of porting was worth it for the gains from having an ide with an integrated debugger. Borland always rocked.
