I have just found your product Lazarus. I have used Delphi several
years ago, but stopped using it. The cost of the advanced features such
as client server was the reason. Is Lazarus something that can be used
or will it have limitations?

Well, I use it and like it very much =) I have one project that can be
compiled with both Lazarus and Delphi and works as well on one as with
the other http://magnifier.sourceforge.net/
Limitations basically depend on what you need. Lazarus is well developed
for: Database access, GUI design, XML, Hardware Access, cgi, etc ....
If you are more specific about your needs we can give more information.
The biggest advantage of Lazarus over about anything else out there is
the LCL. You can code for the LCL, witch is very (~95%) compatible with
the VCL, and then compile your program for *native* widgets on each
platform!
This means that your program does not require any external libraries to
run on different platforms, making it small and fast. Anything else out
there (Java, pure Qt, pure Gtk, wxWidgets, etc) will require huge (often
20MB+) libraries to be installed with your application.
There is also some info on the wiki:
