Well it is not confusing, it's quite simple actually. Borland, MSVC++ are just compilers. You use the one you can afford or the one you like. Now you mention C++ console and C++ win32 app. Why do you mix them. If you want to make a win app, you choose win32app. If you want a console app you choose console application. Unix and linux is the same thing.
You say all these are confusing. Why are you confused, you can't choose between these. It depends of your needs. Almost all are different stuff.
Borland, Unix, Linux, MS etc. are all different compilers, but the language is still the same in all of them.
The only difference between Console and Windowed is the linker settings - it determines how Windows calls your program.
