[DUG] Another Embarcadero article

[Darrell.Olsen at sungard.com]

Coming in very late to this topic but 64bit is huge for us also.

Also, and within the context of cross platform support for the Mac OS,
surely Delphi needs to go 64bit from the get-go as the Mac is
predominantly 64bit and will be 100% 64bit by years end. The MAC OS will
still support 32bit apps but why would one go down this route?

Darrell.

I'm 100% with you on that one.

64bit would be a huge thing for us.

In a nutshell:  To my mind, putting cross platform ahead of 64-bit
support is a mistake.

(note that I'm not saying that cross platform isn't a good idea or
ultimately worthwhile, just that 64-bit should come first!)
