How about comparing > apples with apples guys? Or were they too afraid of offending Borland? I recently attended the Borland OOP World Tour one day tutorial on OOP. Let's give them credit: they spoke of the Zortech package with great respect. One attendee had a special requirement and they recommended that he look at Zortech. What more could you ask. Compare that with IBM's recent ads (e.g. WSJ) which would lead you to believe that 1. Computer driven multi-media presentations are brand new. 2. IBM invented them with the PS2 series.
