Bullet proof IDE.
That is what they need. Combined with HELPFUL help. People will upgrade (eventually!) so long as they are confident that the IDE is stable and as easy to use. There must be so many people (like us) who don't upgrade very often and then got put off completely by the problems with Delphi 8/2005... some of which people say still exist, albeit to a much lesser extent, on 2007. We'll get 2008 anyway I imagine but if it is really unstable then we may just downgrade to Delphi 7! David.

Totally have to agree with that. And Delphi isn't dead by the way, I forgot to add my two cents. It is holding very steady and is uncomparable in the Win32 market now that there really are no competitors. IMHO, if you want your application to really smoke on Windows, Delphi is the place to go.
