If it happens in an update, free of charge, as soon as possible after
Dexter is released, then fine.
If .Net 2.0 support means a major upgrade with a corresponding price
tag, I will be real dissatisfied.
I develop for the .Net market (components for other developers to use)
and both I and Borland have access to MS' pre-releases and betas so "we
don't support products not released" is not a very good excuse.

not going to stop working just because a new version came out.
Solution #2: Buy with software assurance, and renew the SA annually.
It should be a good bargain if you do have a real interest in all four
of those upcoming releases.

gets you an automatic update to D2006 and, if Highlander is released within
one year from now, will cover that too. Of course the idea is to keep
renewing SA, so even if Highlander were a bit later than one year, you would
still save a bundle by having, and renewing, SA every year.

@newsgroups.borland.com:
2.0 as the earliest possible moment and you don't have to worry about
whether that is in Dexter, Highlander, or some update. Of course this
doesn't mean that you will get it any sooner than "When it is Ready", so if
your schedules/commitments really require .Net 2.0 before Borland can
deliver, then you will have to find an alternative. If your customers
insist on a concrete date, then ask them for a corresponding penalty
payment if Microsoft slips its delivery date of .Net 2.0. I think you will
find that they back off that requirement faily rapidly.

Does that assurance cover support for .Net 2.0?
While the price is important, timing is crucial.

Besides, Euclidean geometry clearly specifies a rectangle has four 90?
angles, with the opposing sides being equal. A square is a special case
of a rectangle where all four sides are equal. A parallelogram, on the
other pedantic foot...
