Having written TSR's in Pascal and C I have to disagree. C had significantly more power and was a lot simpler to get working for lower level stuff.

Turbo Pascal had all the capabilities of C as well. I can produce a one to one table, if you wish.

Additionally after version 5.5, it also had support for OO.
