Best thing that could happen, IMHO, is to take the basics of the Kylix

GTK, which runs on Windows, Linux, Mac and many embedded devices.

Free Pascal works and works well. The Lazarus IDE is unstable, but not
Free Pascal.

I agree with most of what you've said. I believe that CodeGear would be
smart to "embrace open source" by supporting FPC in their products.

However, I wouldn't leverage the IDE part of Kylix. If CodeGear is
interested in FPC support either build it into BDS, or build it on top
of Eclipse or Netbeans.

FWIW, I think your price point is about right for this kind of product.
I'm also an advocate of subscription fees versus product purchases.
