Technology, Innovation & Telecomm

I’ve gotten the basic installation of WordPress 2.0.1 done.  Things will continue to change, but I’m on my way in any case…

Wow.

Still, I have to say that I’m not terribly surprised, given that Borland has made similar bone-headed moves in the past (who can forget the more-innocuous-yet-still-stupid “Inprise” name change?). Having said that, perhaps their selling of the tool-sets will help those products. They’ve seemed to be faltering in their IDE focus in recent years, so perhaps things will improve under another owner. I sure hope so, since I’ve been a devotee’ of their various products for a lot o’ years.

I love C++ builder and was a Delphi user for a long time. And I can’t tell you how many different products I developed using Turbo Pascal… I truly, truly hope that this move doesn’t end up killing either Borland OR their IDE development tools. I kinda still have a soft spot for Philippe Khan…
