I think in general the upgrade policy has been quite generous, as others say
other companies are much worse.
Take Microsoft - As a Vista user of 1 year I get no reduced price upgrade
to Windows 7. Vista is V6.0, Windows 7 internally is ictually Windows 6.1
and could be argued is not even a new version at all - they are as similar
as Windows 2000 (V5.0) and Windows XP (V5.1) were.
D2007 versus 7 - have to say the D2007 use of IDE screen is a lot better for
a single screen on a laptop. And like others I have the D7 help loaded -
actually the D2007 help is not so bad, just slow at times.
Really one reason Borland went broke is that they made an IDE that could be
used forever..
