Re: What browser do you use?

Fascinating Bifta that you know so much about by coding skills.

philip:

For Win32 applications, I have Delphi 7 Enterprise. Best development suite ever.

For web applications, I use php or asp depending on the client's choice as a scripting language, Java for UNIX executables, and Delphi for IIS ISAPI DLLs.

I don't write applications for UNIX (gnome or kde or other xcrap), and I don't care to design web pages for Opera/Firefox/Mozilla/other browsers. It is not my business at the moment.

As to what kind of applications? Past projects include directional drilling mapping software to provide directional drill operators to map, in 3D, the path they want to drill, and to provide them with azimuth, force, angle, and other settings. [Technical specifications given to me by the client. I didn't know anything about directional drilling until then.]

Current project is a point of sale system for restaurants, because the current stuff on the market is complete crap. And they are selling this 4-hour VB-made crap for $5,000 a piece. I can do better than that and cheaper. I already have a client that owns a restaurant chain helping me out. My plan is to sell it, and then pay 15% of the price to each person that manages to convince a restaurant to use my software. Release date is summer 2005. This will be my first commercially published software product, and I'm hoping this will make my company boom a bit.
