Delphi... Turbo?

Is there a new version of Delphi coming?

As Mike Dillamore mentioned in non-tech, the readme of the new Delphi 2006 hotfixes (btw, thanks, DevCo) says it applies to the following versions:

Product:       Borland Developer Studio
Version:    2006
Update level:  Update 2
Editions:    Professional, Enterprise, Architect, Turbo
Languages:    English, German, French, Japanese


Turbo is certainly something new to me... is there a new versions coming? Sounds like a low-end/personal version by the name, and quite a glorious name it is! Go, DevCo!

It doesn't sound as corporate as the other edition
names, but I sure could use a Turbo edition of the IDE!

Just a small gap to jump From "Turbo Pascal" To
"Delphi Turbo" ?

I'm not sure why they would put the low-end product on
the high end of the list. Notice the product range
starts at Professional and ends with Architect, the
top of the line version. Suddenly, it's their low-end
version. Hmm....

Actually, Turbo is the highest SKU, the only one 
without bugs and issues, used internally only. 
Management decided not to release it, because it 
will slow down upgrades... <G>

Maybe it is just chronological order (or order of 
records in database table) ...

Delphi Turbo is just the name of the edition used by
Borland personnel for their own development. 

Since Delphi 6 this version used at Borland is called
"Turbo". It used to have another name, but fot the
moment I can't remember it.

Delphi... Turbo? 

OPEN SOURCE OR BUST

I have been using Borland products  for 20 years (See
the name TurboCASH - I also started TurbCAD. All
progrmmed using a $49 compiler called TurboPascal

Somewhere along the way  Borland took a left turn down
a dark alley marked "Fortune 500".

They just seem flat footed at the moment. There is so
much going on in the Free and Open Source Development
Environment, why would anyone want to pay to rent
soemone elses development IDE? Its almost commical
watching this 20 century animal twisting in the tar pits.

Come on Borland - DO SOMETHING.
