This is really sad.<p>Thanks to the experience with Turbo Basic and Turbo Pascal I never worshipped C.<p>Their C++ developer experience was also quite good. Only now has Microsoft with C++&#x2F;CX + XAML kind of approached the same experience.<p>Never got to use Delphi in anger past version 1.x as by then I was mostly busy with C++.<p>Quite sad to see Delphi die like this, but a small part of its soul lives in C# anyway.
