Can anyone compare and contrast the new object oriented pascals just 
released by Microsoft and Borland for PCs?  Although 10-15 years behind
technology, mass market products often stir the creative pot and bring
perspective to academic discussions.  I know there are some significant
differences (early and late binding) and some substantial style diffs
(Apple Classcal flavor vs. C++ flavor).  Can someone please offer concrete
criticism of either compiler (or both)?
