Re: Congrats CodeGear!Quote... (omg) "Dungeon" <GGG>. The clang of hammers, the screech and fizzle of working with them is not. The names CodeGear and Delphi IMO show a different spirit, and I much more prefer the Delphi-spirit. AppBuilder as name is awfull. I see programming as an art not as a craft and as such I find CodeGear horrible. Makes me think of the film of Charlie Chaplin and the conveyor belt instead of an artist calling the power of the ancient gods ;-) |

QuoteLarry Maturo writes: me that Borland can pull the plug if performance of CodeGear the company is not what Borland considers up to snuff. Yes, that worry would have existed even if DevCo had been sold, but I'd prefer to have CodeGear owned by someone that is e{*word*277}d to be in the business. Borland by its own admission wanted out, and sure they can spin things now but it is obvious they would have sold if someone had ponied up the cash. Having said all that, I wish CodeGear and all the guys working there best of luck. I don't plan to move from Delphi unless I am forced to. -- Herb Sitz |

QuoteHerbert Sitz writes: Borland didn't see a big future in developer tools, they're not going to keep a money-losing subsidiary around for long. Another owner might have provided an infusion of capital for development and been more forgiving about losses as DeCo ramped up as a new company. Somehow I suspect that is not going to be case with Borland as owner. -- Herb |

QuoteBorland didn't see a big future in developer tools, they're not going to and money to spin-off a subsidiary? We were told in this group by speculators that Borland was selling off DTG just get some quick cash to fund ALM, and they had no interest in doing anything with the tools. Now, when they stand by their sale criteria and refuse to accept the first offer to come around, which would have given them the quick cash they were accused of seeking, people draw up new {*word*97} theories. This is non-tech. QuoteAnother owner might have provided an infusion of capital for development and prosper. |
