Hi Paul, >>. Borland is practically out of business --- something that happened the minute it chose to broaden its product offerings beyond a niche. << Kahn bit off more than he could chew. If they'd stuck with languages they would be in much better shape right now. I will tell anyone who listens that Borland's Delphi is the best windows-based development environment there is... RAD indeed. >>Same thing with Corel.<< Their apps sucked. >>All of those modem based communication products disappeared with winsock. The peer to peer networking companies got crushed with Win95.<< Was that bad for the customer? I like the fact that DUN is integrated into the OS instead of having to load some crappy Trumpet winsock. >>I can't point to a single thing MSFT innovated beyond the addition of sound to the PC OS.<< Didn't they write NT from the ground up? Do you think they're just spinning wheels in their research labs? They've got some great minds at work there. FWIW Andy
