Earlier this week I joined a webinar hosted by Embarcadero to celebrate. Ian hosted it and David I was there along with a few others... I joined and shared a ten minutes video showing the original 16-bit Delphi IDE, running on 16-bit Windows and producing a 16-bit application, a 32-bit IDE producing a 32-bit application, and 64-bit version of Delphi generating a 64-bit application. They all had the same source code, safe for a minor change and styling enablement. At the end.... I showed a native Delphi app for a new, coming platform.
The entire video is available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAemnBbn-MQ
