How long have you been using Delphi?

Since D1 was first released.

We avoid stuff like packages and DLLs since it makes deployment of
applications so much more complex - our apps roll out to thousands of
desktops in the UK, and single EXE's are so much easier to deploy than a
set of inter-dependent items.

This is also why we've not yet undertaken a .Net migration, as
deployment takes on a new face entirely. Plus our user base is still
firmly Win2000 based, with around 50% moved onto XP. The launch of Vista
is simply unrealistic at present in the commercial world in which we
move, and will take a few years to catch up.
