This is where the shoe is squeezing maybe. I had rather see Borland be a
little more daredevilish than the picture you paint.
The "*could* affect" attitude is in the close neighborhood of being
paranoid, and there is still not forbidden to apply sound judgment.

Admittedly, I am here talking about things I myself have lots of
experience with and at the same time still haven't been in Borland R&D,
but that also applies to you :-)
