Can you give me an example or two. I am not trying to nitpick; I am
genuinely curious how VCL.NET can be better than WinForms.
1. Try to find a WinForms component that allows user draw. Not many do,
while it is very well present in the VCL(.NET)
2. The VCL has TStrings, which is used for all kinds of collections of
strings (and related obejcts). In WinForms, each component has its own
interface, sometimes an array of strings, something a class, but each tie
something different.
3. WinForms uses GDI+, which does not use hardware acceleration (yet),
while VCL.NET, like the original VCL, uses the GDI.

LOL! I know that most replies take a long time, all around the world.
Well, try to email me, and you will have to wait for a few days too,
