Borland Backs Down

Seriously though, it's good to see a company respond to the voices of the online community, and admit it made a mistake. Good job Borland."

    That's the problem. Everyone has licenses like that. It's "industry standard boilerplate". Oh well, as long as we continue to pay close attention we can force some companies to be reasonable. Others, however, are not so susceptible to pressure.
