IB will certainly not disappear, they tried that once before but it is such a good earner and only getting better that they will not drop it. We have thousands of deployments of IB in this country alone, it runs key systems in the US (Phili stock exchange, some core Boeing systems, etc) - IB is a very popular product and sells well, it will not be going away - it was designed for a specific use and it is very good at what it does.

I see them shifting to the LifeCycle support stuff.
Yes they will keep up Java and C# - but I see Delphi disappearing...
I also expect IB to start going the same way (in a year or so...)
 
NB this is just my opinion...

You will be in for a large surprise then.
 
What are Borland shifting their focus to instead?

My take on it:
Delphi for .Net is that is on its way out - Borland is moving its focus away from Delphi - there is still money to be made ... so D9 and I suspect there may even one after that, but just tedding water with it - no significant advances/improvements...
