Confused Swede!!

I asked in a compter stoore here in Sweden for BCB5>, and to mu suprise he tells me that borland siezed to exist over a year ago! Is this true? He also told me that Microsoft migh or might not have bought borland! Is this also true?

I am trying to find another version of BCB, my current is - freeversion supplied by a computer magazine - BCB3 standtard! Not so much fun!! If anyone knows a place where I can by BCB 4> or 5>, without the need of cards or checks, please lett me know!!!

Still confuesed!!

borland still exist, they changed their name over a year ago to Inprise , they wanted a motto called "Inprise inspires programmers"

most of their programming languages will still carry the name Borland, due to it's reconition, but the company itself is call inprise.

if you go their you'll see their logo says "Borland"

Just before Christmas I purchased BCB5 Pro from Programmer's Paradise ( ) [also known as Programmers Supershop]. Also note that Inprise will be changing its name back to Borland later this year (!!!????)

Borland's hottest product is JBuilder which is a Java based RAD. They are also getting ready to produce Kylix which is Delphi (Pascal) and C++ compilers for both Linix and Windows. See there site for more information.

Thanks!!

I got a bit confused when he 'forgot' to tell me that they only changed the name!! Dont know 'bout you, but i think that people dealing with computers should know least half the truth!! not only bits and peaces!! =I

Jbuilder, recently got version 5(I think), professional on a demo disc(or what ever they're called)!! Though I don't know much about Java, I will still give it a try!!

And thanks again...:!!
