On February 14, 1995 the first version of Delphi was released. For the first time I could be productive writing windows applications in a nice, intuitive, visual way. Not only that, but could use the same development tool to make add-on components. I've used every version going way back to Turbo Pascal 3.0. Now days we're using Delphi 2010 to build all of our current products.

Thinking about it, I first purchased Turbo Pascal 3.0 back in 1986... phew... 20+ years of Pascal for me. Man, where does the time go?
