Why would anyone want to switch from VB to
an old version of Delphi that's restricted to hobby
usage? Why would anyone want to even waste
time trying it out? Are you a Delphi salesman?

The exception, other than the non-commercial use, is it is devoid of many of
the components on the pallette the Pro version has.
But, even though a component is not on the pallette, it can still be
instantiated in code, so the Personal D7 is no less powerful than the Pro
version.

It was offered for free (after I paid for mine, but after a looksee, I
bought the Pro version too ) for awhile along with the Turbo versions.

It is worth a look to see if it is a viable migration away from MS though.

I didn't have a deep investment in VB5/6 in the form of any large commercial
apps like so many others here, so it didn't pain me to actually start using
Delphi, even though I had two previous Delphi versions starting with D1, for
the bulk of my work.

Notwithstanding, the context of the OP is an egregious departure from
topical content in the manner presented..

900 bucks for Delphi Pro only! And no idea whether
they'll stay in business. That's enough of a looksee
for me. :)

It is however off topic for this group.
Why don't you tell a Delphi group?
