Great anecdote, thanks for sharing. Got to agree on the productivity part. I did just part of one product in Turbo Pascal (just at the start of my career), which was a freelance project, interestingly, without any previous job experience, like some others here have said they did, but also a lot of personal / fun stuff with it, and also taught it for a while in a training institute. Most of my other product and project work was / is done in C, Java, Ruby, Python etc. But as I too have said here a few times before, never come across a more productive environment than TP and Delphi - though Python is close, for the language part alone (leaving aside libs, GUI, building, etc.).
