With Stefan's recent polls, I got to wondering - any love for Borland Pascal With Objects v7 out there?

I used to really love developing with this, I didn't mind creating and laying-out Windows dialogs and controls 'from code' by hand, and the novelty of it being my first Windows IDE with coloured syntax highlighting never wore off. Although the highlighting made the editor too slow to use on my 386 at home, so I could only really use it on my 486SX at work. :-)
And it's easy with hindsight to see how you add the VCL to BP/O7, pop in a visual forms designer and bam! the essence of Delphi 1.
