The blue background wasn't that nice IMHO. I always preferred the original Turbo Pascal with black background.

Yes indeed. I did a quick search and it's really difficult to find images of that original color scheme. I have fond memories of long coding sessions in Turbo Pascal 3.x with the black background and green and white text.

Delphi was great too and I probably spent an order of magnitude more time in Delphi, but I have fonder memories of Turbo Pascal

I believe both early TP and TC had black backgrounds. It was much later that they became cyan/yellow on blue, because Turbo Vision [update?].
I will crater to your wishes.
