Jeroen,

Back to the globalization: I think it is a good thing that Borland is going
on-line. Hopefully, it is realized that the internet is a global network and they
sell and ship to any place in the world.


Unless European internet environment has been changed by now, until
last year it used to be really expensive to be online from Europe.
I don't know how bad is "distributors " over there,we need to be
careful about going "internet only" in Europe.

For Asian market, it might work well as long as copy proction is
heavily built in for they are famous for illegal copy.

I reread press release, it was for US only for now.

We'd love to download instead of going to store because we know
we'll get the best product. But coperate is different. ie, next
week one consulting company is coming to Bipin's client sight for
demo. IBM is paying for the expense. Most companies don't want to
change the whole system on their own unless some agressive tactics
like this one is taken.

regards,

BPP
