Here's a reason you don't hear every day. If I make more purchases the software will just be stolen from me. I have been the victim of multiple burglaries in the past. There is never any evidence of breaking and entering so the police do nothing. Insurance pays so little and demands receipts for everything. Result - I am out the stolen items and cannot replace them. Insurance also does not pay for the time I put in on the projects that were stolen from me. First my backup CDs were stolen. Then the computers from which the backups were made were also stolen.
I have moved 4 times in 2 years. Valuables and business information were stolen over time. A folder with gold coins in a locked room once existed. One coin would disappear. Then, a week later, another coin would disappear. No visible forced entry to the house or the room. I lived alone. It seems like there is no way to stop someone from stealing from me. What can I do when someone steals my livelihood no matter where I move to? I always lock the doors. Has anyone else had this problem?

Some reason people have given include : - the RB 5.5 IDE launches and executes quicker than RB 2005/2006 on the same hardware - compiles in 5.5 are faster - the IDE itself. It has floating palettes for controls which people with multiple monitors prefer - the debugger lets you modify values as you debug (2005/2006 doesn't) - stability. The 5.5 IDE rarely quits or crashes and the 2005/2006 IDE did so more frequently (although I find them reasonably stable) - don't need the new features of 2005/2006 and associated new bugs & issues - support for older Mac OS systems (which is why some people are still using version 4 and 5) and I'm sure there are some I've missed. Personally I've been using 5.5 and 2005. I have not moved any projects up to 2006R2 yet as my client is about to release. 2006R1 was not usable for them because of a few bugs and 2006R2 hit too late in the cycle to move up to it before release. That may happen after release as there are a number of bug fixes in 2006R2 that they could use. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html> _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
