Price seems to range from ~$2000 to ~$4500 to use it, which feels a bit steep.

- unnouinceput 6y agoYup. That is what is need it and for any meaningful work you kinda need to buy the priciest version, which is north of $5000. I use Delphi and this is the main reason why is not widespread.
- byko3y 6y ago>Price seems to range from ~$2000 to ~$4500 to use it, which feels a bit steep Yeah, I feel like Embarcadero/Borland took a completely wrong turn with their price policy. Instead of making the tool widespread and make small money from huge amount of places, they decided to go on full vendor-lock where you either get all or nothing, so Borland got nothing eventually and ceased to exist. That also burried my carrier prospects in that area, which is so sad considering how good the Pascal is as a language compared to C/C++.
