mouser:
cant install 3rd party components, that sucks - i wonder if they will experience some pushback from component developers..

i notice the PRO version of explorer, which is still only $100 for students, CAN install 3rd party components, which in my mind would be worth it.  the use of 3rd party components is one of the best features.

Gerome:
Hi,

Definately hate those products...

f0dder:
I started programming with Turbo Pascal 6.0 (and later on, Borlan Pascal 7.0). Nothing got even close to it back then, in terms of IDE or integrated help system. Having a decent and crosslinked and topic'ized help system was an extreme advantage when learning programming.

It was also very nifty that TP6 could compile+link directly to memory, so the build/test/debug/rebuild cycle got a lot faster - harddrives were EXTREMELY slow back then :)

Definitely a lot better than having started off with crap like BASIC.

Unless you used variants like BBC Basic which was a brilliant procedural and function based language in its day.
