Ha!
Sorry, I just got busy. Er, I didn't read all the way through it until someone said it was cheap - and yes, I think $23m was way too low! What do I think? Well I'm glad they are away from Borland for one thing - CodeGear's back office infrastructure has been pretty dire because they have had to use Borland's - nothing to do with CodeGear itself, all to do with Borland. So I'm hoping that will change. Given it is the sale of the *assets*, I'm not sure what is going to happen now. We have two seminars scheduled for June (one Delphi one by the way!) and I don't really know what will happen, so I need to get confirmation on whether to go ahead with them. The Delphi presentation was going to be held in Auckland, Hamilton and Christchurch (as Wellington is such a small community it doesn't make economic sense unless Alistair wishes to donate the use of his presentation room :-) I'll talk more about it once I know more! So yeah, don't know what to think - don't know how it affects us and our plans. Given Delphi is the jewel in the crown of CodeGear, I think that is probably the reason they were interested in CodeGear...
