There are reasons for my opinion...

1. Downloaded 332Mb of Turbo Delphi...
2. Spent yonks getting the largest authentication thingie I've ever seen off their site
3. Attempted to install said 332Mb of crap, only to be informed that I needed a shedload of stuff off the M$ site to make it install properly
4. The recommended stuff in a zip file on their site won't download at all, it just times out.
5. The "free" version of Delphi 6 that I had in my archives requires a magic number.
6. The thingie for the magic number for Delphi 6 no longer exists.

Borland sold it to some other bunch of mugs.

And judging by the comments on various boards, have managed to piss off an awful lot of people...

"Free" software that you can't install.

Bargain.
