Saw the borland ad in todays TOI . Some doubts arise !
Why are they marketing it as VB for linux ? Doesnt Delphi have a standing of
its own, especially in India, where (atleast i know) there are many
programmers who swear by Delphi ( i was one of them!).
Why add cross-platform as a feature ? Does linux programs really need to run
under WinDOZE or vice versa ? :-|
And who is it targeted at ? At 2499$ its waaay tooooo cheap(huh! think about
a years salary just for ....). Definitely, not targeted at india !!
Any ways,
Vinil
