    TurboExplorer

    Only 2 days left until Turbo explorer releases their first software copies. I cant wait. Being able to own a free version of Delphi will be a dream come true!

    I am sort of holding back on some tutorials to be able to do them in Turbo rather than FPC.

    I just saw the ECO is Child's Play video on that site. I'm curious what you think of that. Although quite impressive, for a 9 year old to make something like that, I thought the whole concept takes away the fun of programming. I mean, she didn't have to write a single line of code. Where's the fun in that?

    Did they moved release time slightly?
    + 6 hours maybe?

    the only pitty thing is that only one turbo can be installed per machine, now i do not know which one to download... delphiwin32 or .net ? Does anyone know how the turbo version relate to delphi2005 or delphi2006.

    I am just confused. Does this mean Delphi will only be available as TurboDelphi? Or will Borland continue to sell thei own version? If so why split the product into two?

    The free win32 version does not allow any thirdparty components, doesn't that make it pointless if you want to make games using DelphiX,Omega, DJX, asphyre?

    it seems when you have a bds installed (like delphi2005) you cannot install an turbo version at all..

    here is the faq: http://bdn.borland.com/article/33659

    delphi 2006 pro etc still be available as an bundled language edition.

    I love it..!

    Downloaded Delphi for win32 ofcourse and it installed like a breeze. The IDE is slick and unexpectedly responsive. Templates are nice, editor configuration is easy. All my code compiles!

    I have yet to find out what this refactoring thing is but it sounds interresting!

    This is Delphi 7 combined with visual studio! :twisted:

    So is it possible to install things like Omega and DelphiX?

    Use those packages runtime, Czar. That's one of the restricted features.

    But let me say this for the first time since Delphi 4...

    HOLY CROW!

    That wasn't what I was expecting at all! It was slick and optomized, not at all the recent "Borland's Bulk" feel to the IDE. The new memory manager is awesome, and the code hooks that are built in automatically (by default) are astounding! Also, the apps are smaller then BDS 2005 PE which is what I used before.

    First good step from the NewCorp, so keep it up and you will get my $500!!
