Borland Delphi 2005 Professional - upgrade package HDB0005WWCS180

5 stars (Best database development system for xbase user) - I am extremely impressed and satified by the capability, simplicity, power, magic and genius of the Borland Delphi products. I have used Visual dBASE, Visual Foxpro, Visual Basic, Access and Visual Objects, and none of these products have the simplicity and power of this amazing product from Borland. Moreover, this product dramatically reduced my programming time. Maintenance of a Delphi program is also a snap. For example, I wrote a DOS business invoicing and inventory program using Clipper in 3 weeks time, but the same program rewritten using Delphi was accomplished in only 3 hours. This was made possible because of the power of the Delphi database components and user interface components. The finished product is neat and incredibly fast. In the Clipper old days, I spent most of my time writing codes, now I have much more time to share with my family and friends, and enjoying other things life has to offer, thanks to Delphi. This is the programming environment I always dreamed of. The beauty and elegance of Delphi surpasses anything I have seen and tried. Naturally, there is no free lunch for anything in life, there is a steep learning curve. Delphi is the Clipper for the 2000's and more! 2 stars (Don't believe the hype!!!!) - I was excited at the prospect of getting this product. I own Delphi5, and the idea of an upgrade that I could use to support my existing code as well as upgrade to .net in future or even (horror of horrors leave Delphi and Switch to C#) seemed great, talk about covering all your bases. The new features sounded sensible too. Synch editing (where changing a single identifier in a selection changes all the others) seemed a great idea. Having always stuck with Borland in the past I was expecting something professional and polished, sadly I think Borland have lost the plot. D2005 tries to be a Jack of all Trades and ends up being a master of none. The user interface is clutter...
