>I've just paid for a review of Kylix, and the Borland company. Result: I prefer VFP because the company has so much experience in it and existing proven products. But if all the promisespeak about marketing for VFP comes to nothing and Gartner et al keep trashing VFP and by implication us, Kylix/Delphi is the one. Good VFP'ers will have no trouble at all with the move.


Actually, Delphi does not compete with VFP. It competes with VB and C. It is much easier to program than C or C++ and much faster than VB. The execution speed is comparable to C++.

I use Delphi to create DLLs and othe speed sensitive apps. Now with Kylix it is even nicer cause we can program for Linux using an excellent environment
