Hahaha, it is not true because I have tested them and realize above 50% of the websites are still supporting delphi.
Hey guy, if they kicked you out of work (Borland) doesn't mean you will start to criticize others.

Grow up and invert your own software. Moreover, your age mate are using their brain to develop and you are using your own opposite.
