[DUG] Turbo Delphi

[Richard Vowles]

64-bit - you clearly don't read the Delphi product managers Blog - see
here: http://blogs.borland.com/nickhodges/archive/2006/08/04/26445.aspx
SSE2 - well, there is SSE, SSE2, and SSE3 and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSE2#Notable_CPUs_not_supporting_SSE2 and
given it is focused at games, I understand why it isn't a priority.
MMX - I'm surprised by this
 
Linux - well, given Kylix failed to sell, cost Borland a huge amount
amount of money and set Delphi back by 18 months, you can understand why
they are loathe to go back there. You'll probably see some Mono tho, but
thats just a guess.

>From what I understand, the difference is just cut the price which is
good of course. But they should listen to what developer really want,
i.e. 64bit cpu, mmx, sse2 code generation optimize, Linux etc.

	Ouch! .. looks like they are in need of a good web designer. 

	 

	First impression is that they kind of make Delphi start to look
and sound like a cheap toy programming language for hobbyists ;-/
