Since it's in the best interest of the Board to see DevCo succeed I think they'll make sure they find the right buyer. QuoteLet's face it -- if Borland thought they could make a go of the IDE since before the Imprise fiasco. Their IDE business no longer fits into their business model and they are making a wise choice to cut it loose before they completely run it into the ground. Quoteso they'll be just as directions, up or down, and the only way to make it go up is to return to the good old days when Borland was the technical leader in development tools. If the Borland IDEs were technically state-of-the-art today, perhaps some giant company would buy DevCo for its intellectual property, {*word*16}ize the current products and use the technology to boost its own products. Since the IDEs aren't at that level I don't think this will happen. Or so I hope. |
