Because they are likely to face much smaller budgets now than whenthey were with Borland.
Just WHERE do you get this information? Without knowing who the buyer
is or what their approach will be, or how deep their pockets are, how
can you say this is likely. Anyone buying Delphi is going to be smart
enough to know that it NEEDS more investment. Why buy a product and
then starve it for resources?
They simply can't afford the luxury of trying to compete withRedmond anymore. It's not impossible to compete with MSFT, it is just
impossible to do it on a shoestring budget.
These statements are just loaded with assumptions, Jake.
I have yet to see anything good happening as a result of Borland's
decision to divest. I'm sorry but I'm not going to lie and pretend
everything is great, when it is not. Show me what great thing has
happened so far. All I'm seeing are predictions that great things
will happen. Humanity has an appallingly bad track record when it
comes to prophecy.
Yours included, I hope you are humble enough to admit.
Randy
