I doubt a Kylix repeat. I mean that was just pathetic Borland marketing trying to run the development side of the tools.

As far as the free Delphi is concerned though, that was Code Gear that set that up not Borland. The Code Gear team was the team behind that 100%. I thought it was good, but I doubt that the Turbo Delphi releases would alone bring back a strong era for the Delphi tools. What I think would be a better idea would be a stripped-down compiler/IDE package for Small Businesses and Students/Hobbiests at a reasonable price for those small-time developers. They still only have Architect and Professional editions of Delphi. 'Standard' still hasn't seemed to have make a return yet.

But maybe something like a 'Delphi Lite' at say... $60 - $100 might bring in some extra users of the tools.
