Re: FastMM Donations

However, think about this. When you pay for D2K6, you are paying
Borland for Pierre's FastMM (it is listed as one of the major new
benfits)

Well yes, but Pierre did open-source it. Which means that he did it not
expecting payment, but now he gets free copies of Delphi every time, and a
bit of glory. There are plenty of other contributors to the Fast project
that have their stuff in Delphi as well.

I'm sorry, but I'd rather send my spare money to the Red Cross or
Greenpeace.
