Earth to PEDA! Earth to PEDA!
Either I am lost in space, which is quite possible, or the PEDA List Server is. I sent the following post to the PEDA Forum, and was supprised to not get any replies. Then I noticed that the list seems to have slown down to a crawl, with only a very few posts showing up, and I thought my ISP must have lost all of my mail again (which they do on a regular basis), so I logged onto Yahoo! Groups and checked the PEDA Archive, and lo and behold, it only shows postings up to October 17th. Has the world come to an end? Did I miss the meltdown? Anyway, I am reposting this in hope that I can get some responses.

What is Borland Delphi? I asked one person and they told me it was "kind of like Visual Basic". I am totally clueless on this one (and a few other things), so any help in attempting to get started here would be greatly appreciated. OK, so I do a search on Borland Delphi on the net, and I come up with at many different versions and with prices all over the map: Delphi 7 Studio Professional Upgrade - $289 Delphi 7 Studio Professional Academic - $96 Delphi 7 Studio Enterprise Upgrade - $1569 Delphi 7 Studio Enterprise New User - $2700 Delphi Studio Professional 7 Full Product - $893 Delphi 7 Personal Full Product - $87 Delphi Studio 7 Academic - $389 Needless to say, I don't want to buy more than I need, and at the same time I certainly don't want to go out and buy something that is not going to do the job. I even have a question in my mind as to whether or not the SDK modules might be designed for and work better with an older version of the product, as I have run into this sort of thing before. Should I be looking for version 5 on Ebay or something? On the other hand, does anyone have any idea what I will need for the DXP SDK if and when it ever shows up? According to Murphy's Law it will probably be different.
