Ahh.. fine .. but can you pronounce it correctly?

>Anyways, you can "combine Delphi with Kylix to use a single code base to develop cross-platform Linux/Windows applications". I be willing to bet there are a couple of people look at that

Right, but the majority are probably looking at Kylix alone. As for cross platform, I've seen how that works... not very well, unless you are in a browser. What Linux GUI does it target?

I assume you mean .Net Servers.

Must be complicated app as CORBA, JavaBeans, COM, and .Net are all quite different. I'd also be interested in knowing how well the code is optimized for each environment and how scaleable it is under each environment.

Delphi is a great product. I hope Borland does well with it.
