Where can i get a copy of delphi

If you are in the US, You can order Delphi Desktop on CD-ROM for an introductory price of $199 by calling Borland's credit card order desk at 1-800-331-0877. If you are a registered user of any version of Turbo Pascal or Borland Pascal, you qualify for an upgrade price of $149, and you can also buy the Visual Component Library Source Code for $49. The introductory pricing is good through approximately May 15, 1995; after that, the price will be raised to $495. Delphi Client/Server is $1999. Of course, if you buy through a reseller, you will probably pay less. According to Borland, "Delphi is available through the following US resellers: CompUSA, Best Buy, Elek-Tek, Computer City, Babbages, Software Etc., Fry's, Electronics Boutique, Corporate Software, ASAP Software Express, Egghead Software, Softmart, Software Spectrum, CDW, PC Connection, Programmer's Paradise, Programmer's Warehouse, ProVantage Shop, and Micro Warehouse." Note that you do NOT have to go through Borland directly to get the upgrade price. When you buy a copy of Delphi at the discounted retail price (US street prices are $179-$189), the box contains a coupon for the $50 discount if you mail in a serial number for Turbo or Borland Pascal. You have to send in a photocopy of your install disk, or the original first page of your manual. Borland also maintains list prices in several other currencies through their various international offices. In addition, distributors sell Borland products across the globe. I do not currently have any verified information about non-U.S. pricing for Delphi; check with the closest Borland office or with your distributor or reseller.
