    You obviously have never used the Embarcadero Delphi IDE.

    Ouch! :thumbsup: I adored the Borland dos range as a 13 year old - still got a copy of the Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.0 manual somewhere too. What a horrific fall from grace that befell them.

      It's pretty bad, but I don't know about it actually being buggy.

        Should try Solidworks for a day! That has got to be one of the buggiest pieces of crap software ever written. I’m sure the people that wrote it couldn’t even program a for-next loop properly.

          beg to differ, almost every question in the lounge is answered. If the question is interpreted differently than expected: whose fault is that? It's just like coding, if programs don't do what you expected is that the computer being obtuse?

            Elephant it, why not? So long as their use doesn't cause problems, it's just a different experience to alcohol. Besides, we're one of very few generations to live through two palindrome years. Perhaps the third, I suppose. 99 & 101, 999 and 1001, 1991 and 2002. One may as well enjoy oneself after a healthy dose of hard work and helping others. Yeah, I used to get out more. :-\

            You know, even in the first century AD, there where people that lived longer than 20 years. So a single person living through 55 - 66 -77 - 88 -99 - 101- 111 would not be so hard to imagine. I don't think they numbered their years like that, though, so they might not have known how special they were.

              Not only is it selling, some strange people in the Lounge are still using it voluntarily!

                I think the SharePoint designer stands up pretty well in comparison of buggy behavior.

                  Clearly you have been around the block my friend. I haven't touched Corel anything since the 90s... and yet I still remember the pain... oh the pain... curse you Corel Draw! On a side note, I just checked. That thing is still selling... :omg:

                        Really... granted I haven't used it since the 90s. I just went the Adobe route after having "fun" with it and never looked back.

                          Oh man, sorry to hear that! Remedy is terrible, just wait until you look at the back end database and see non-descriptive names for most of the columns.


                          Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

                            New names; same old (XP) software. "Corporate" purchases that live long after ... just because it's easier than cancelling and looking for something better. "CA Associates". etc.
