- Seems like everything from Borland is a piece of
- s__t these days!!! They are under-staffed with too
- many large projects to whip out. Between C++,
- Paradox, and Delphi, they are in over their heads,
- and what sucks most is that this stuff is basically
- the best in its class without the testing time to
- make it live up to its potential. Sad... I bet
- Micro$oft, with their gazillion dollars of
- programming power, could have all these products
- cleaned up and working well in a month, but they
- couldn't design a good app if they had too!!!
