"What I am against is quotas. I am against hard quotas, quotas they
basically delineate based upon whatever. However they delineate,
quotas, I think, vulcanize society. So I don't know how that fits
into what everybody else is saying, their relative positions, but
that's my position." -- George W. Bush

pricing in particular) is just ambiguous enough to be confusing. The
meaning is a bit clearer when you look at the text for new user pricing.
The only thing that is obvious from the list is that they really want you to
buy SA!

gotten you D8, D2005 and DeXter. It is cheaper than paying for D8 + 2
upgrades. For SA to be cheaper than upgrading every time All Borland has to do
is ship 2 versions every 3 years. Historically Delphi has shipped a new version
every 14 months. If you look at the roadmap recently available there are 3
listing in the next 2 years after DeXter (Highlander, Vista and Win64).
(considering a 14 month shipping cycle). If you are in a larger company, SA is
an easier way to get approval to upgrade as accountants prefer SA over new
purchases because a) it is a known fixed cost each year and b) the cost gets
spread across the full year instead of the quarter the purchase was made in. If
you are a small shop or a single developer and you skip versions then it doesn't
make much sense.

frequent C++ updates before they convince their C++ customers that SA
is worth it. Right now, based on history of C++ for the last
half-decade, I don't see how a 12-month SA plan could be justified.
However, with Delphi and C++ in the same product, I think it's
reasonable to expect more frequent updates since they can't release
one without the other. How many are C++-specific is TBD, but that's
another topic entirely.
