That does not surprise me as surely their main focus must now be on their Studio version and all that it implies with the IDE. The IDE as we know it now must surely be coming to an evolutionary end, as we already have most of what we need now for creating desktop applications. I get the feeling D7 only real strength is it's pre-use of their .net compiler and more net plus modelling tools. I do however await their studio version with much interest.

Installed it last night and all I can say is that I hope there are a heap of changes 'under the hood' because there are hardly any apparent on the surface. Except them messing with the options dialogs again. There looks to me like it is a release to get XP compatiblity included. I only have the PRO version so the enterprise version might have more changes. One thing that I found good was a Development version of Borlands application server (have it run for 72 hours continuously). It comes with heaps of cd's if that gets you going, including: D7 Pro, D7 .NET pre-release, D7 companion, Kylix 3 Pro, Borland Enterprise Server CD with all versions. Can't recall if there was just a trail cd... At the moment I am disappointed. Plus I want my win2000 icons back. XP icons look terrible. cheers, JED > Ok - by now alot of you have received your Delphi7 CDs, whats your thoughts so > far? ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
