Borland Releases Delphi 7

Unusual for Borland, they have added quite a few extras to their release such as a complete (!) copy of Kylix 3, Borland's port of Delphi to Linux. The price is somewhat affordable, especially if you can take advantage of their upgrade offers. For the first time since Borland became Borland again (after the Inprise debacle), I can say that I am truly impressed by this company and their products."

      It was a joke, dude. I actually did purchase a copy of Delphi 4 Professional. But then I got a new job a few years back, primarily to do Delphi development, so now I just use one of my company's licensed copies. I believe in paying for commercial software if it is useful (eg., UltraEdit), just like I believe in using free software if it fills a need (eg., Mozilla).
