This is nice IF you're coming from Turbo Pascal for DOS or you need to support OS/2, but as a general development environment, it's barely comparable to the version of Delphi from 9 years ago. In other words, if you're not stuck with a bunch of ancient TP code/skills or an app which must run on OS/2, this is a poor tool for Win32/Linux programming.
VPC 's fast, generates tight code, is almost 100% Borland compatible, is more powerful, and is free...
This is a must for DOS 32 developers who want to upgrade their Turbo Pascal 7.1 or their Borland Pascal 7.01 to the latest compatible versions.
