We decided to sit on 3 and wait for 5 because of just such outrageous prices for D4.
After hearing of D4's problems, I am glad we did. Given D3 stability, its still hard
to
work up a business case for D5 C/S. The things in D3 C/S that made it sound
attractive turned out to be mostly 3rd party stuff that worked badly. The exception
being SQL-link. With so many BDE alternatives for native access, that is no
longer an issue. I think we have to look hard now at just D5 professional with
add-ons for specific functionality that I need.
