Let's do a little trip down memory lane. We're talking the '80s, early '90s, and we're looking at a company called Borland, which produced several well-known and popular products related to software development. Back in those days, Borland had an end user license agreement. However, contrary to the EULAs we know and despise today, Borland's 'No-Nonsense License Statement' was a whole lot simpler, and in fact, is a perfect example of how software should be treated.

I have used their products starting with Turbo Pascal 3.0 in uni and the until 6.0 . After that CPP Builder,this one was leaps and bounds above MS Visual series. Delphi was not really my environment (mainly because I quit Pascal for CPP) but then in '99-'00 they came with JBuilder. This also was a decent tool (it even had a swing visual editor back in the time). Borland brings back only good memories. I still have around a copy of CPP Builder bought by the company I was working before. I simply liked their tools.
