Pricing / entry cost for this tool

[Frank R]

No, I wasn't thinking of MS.  It was Borland.  I Have Learning Editions of theirs.

Well, let's see...

C++ Builder *30-day trial* version 6 is dated March 2002
The Kylix *trial* versions are dated from mid-2002 (version 3)
The JBuilder versions are current but only run for 30 days
Delphi Personal is not downloadable but is "available through select
publications", as is Borland C++ Builder Personal.

...or you can purchase Delphi starting at $1090 on up to $3490.
C++ Builder lists for $927 (pro) and $2117 (enterprise)
Entry level JBuilder is $499

Maybe you were thinking of Microsoft? They offered a "Learning
Edition" of VB at the student pricing of $50. Then end-of-lifed the
product.

Mind you, I like Borland's compilers. But the Turbo Pascal days, or
even the Turbo C days, are behind them now.
