Just to make sure we're both on the same "RAD" page, C++ Builder is a RAD tool, Delphi is a RAD tool. VB.Net is a RAD tool. C++ BuilderX Personal is _not_ a RAD tool.
OK. Yes, I've used Delphi and C++ Builder for a while, but haven't upgraded in a few years. The free C++ compiler BC++ 5.5 of course did not come with an IDE. C++Builder (no "X") of course comes with RAD functionality out of the box - that's what it is famous for. It's a bit surprising to me that Borland would put the "Builder" tag on a product that did not have the RAD functionality - that seems misleading and mis-named. The cross-platform IDE might be nice enough by itself I guess, given the support for multiple compilers, and I may try it out just for that.
