I think what i am looking for is a stable path for development over the next
while.
 Borland has in the past provided something of a bulwark between Delphi
developers and aspects of MS but *appears* too closely tied to it now, Linux
is on the rise, even many Asian operators in New Zealand (small and large)
are placing it on the desktop as standard for both private and comercial
operators. (they ahve their own financial reasons for choosing that option -
buit already sopme outfits have fopund that when they turn the machine on it
adequately does spreadsheets, correspondence, internat and email, and that
there are applications availble for purchase for more advanced things.)
 So I am thinking, wherer to pitch my effort (with a view to future
stability) in these shifting tides.
