I do C#, ASP.NET, and TSQL day in/day out. We were primarily a Delphi shop but we just maintain those projects now and do our active development on .NET.

What do you think of .NET vs Delphi?

I don't think there is too much to compare really. .NET smokes delphi in capabilities, features, and now controls. Borland's language designer that put together Delphi's flavor of pascal moved over to be the chief architect of the C# language. Everything I liked about Delphi was included in .NET and more. I poked around your blog for a minute and it looks like you do c++ dev? Now that is one language I would like to learn but haven't gotten around to it yet. I am accustomed to more human-readable languages but if you know C/C++ i'm sure its just like reading a book.

Delphi.NET may make some of those arguments fall away, though. Delphi also has a LOT of nice 3rd party components. Of course, paying for Delphi and then paying for the components to make an app look good is... annoying.
I code in a bunch of languages. Delphi and web languages at work, C++ for fun. Being a mathematician makes C++ pretty easy.

This is true about Delphi.NET but the fact is they're developing a language based on Microsoft's MSIL so they can't really do anything revolutionary I would think. I saw that MS opened up the C# license to a community license and we all know that the .NET framework can be decompiled so it would give Borland some flexibility in features for development... but I just have a problem with using Borland's language that is based on Microsoft's .NET framework. To me it seems like Borland is playing catch-up instead of being innovative.

Can't argue with that :)
