I *seriously* doubt the first part of this statement, because Delphi

See my message above in this thread (10/16/2015, 03:13):
"I asked my colleague who tested this with the MinowBoard Max and he confirms
that Delphi programs do run as Services (with an Event Queue but without a
GUI), but normal applications don't show a form."
This person really is not an idiot but a very versatile programmer doing
Delphi since it exists, Turbo Pascal before !
I did not claim otherwise :)
You can find several statements in this regard by Embarcadero employees.
Obviously they did not try service applications.
We can at least conclude that there is a lot of confusion about what it is and
what it is not;
But seeing that it is Microsoft, this does not come as a surprise...
There are more vendors at work than actual programmers in that company.
