Windows is here to stay and I don't think Borland can ever move
away from it. But I think that people at borland, responsible for
pricing, seem to ignore this and are trying to move away from
windows, by pricing Delphi so high. What are these people upto?
At this rate I only see Delphi becoming less popular and eventually
die. To make anything popular one has to sell more and Borland
are not even worried to lose their current customers, forget about
getting more customers.
