The latest version of BDT is amazingly fast, and it has a lot of nice features. I have used both BDT and MVDeveloper, both are good. I would encourage you to try both and see which works best for you. The plus with both of these apps is that they are free. Tom Whitmore RATEX Business Solution

Eclipse runs as client software. You have plenty of disk space on your workstation. Your workstation CPU is barely registering when you are using any Eclipse based software. If you don't want to use a tool that will save your company money, too bad for you but your boss does. If you are worried
