All three are       32 Bit and your memory worries go away. And they are free for the       download. FreePascal now even comes with its own RAD system (i.e. Delphi       clone), Lazarus. And there is a lot of graphics stuff packed with it,       which I haven't checked in detail but which may help you out.              TP6 will limit you to DOS applications, which are no longer supported in       WinXP and the upcoming Longhorn. And the chances to run DOS on modern       systems becomes smaller and smaller, because a lot of the hardware is       not supported (e.g. USB). You are painting yourself into a corner there.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
