Also, given some of the comments on my original poll regarding Delphi 2005 (and my general disposition towards curiosity), I'd like to know which of these versions you use.

Again, feel free to comment on your reasons.

(Im going to delete off topic comments, e.g. those stating that you use a newer version.)

    It's probably obvious that many (myself included) stick with Delphi 2007 for some projects that are not Unicode aware and have no need to be or where the necessary changes would not be worth the gain, or the required work just cannot be done with the given resources.

    Of course, given that GExperts supports all these versions I need them to continue this support (I never had Delphi 8). I'm not counting that as a reason to stick with any particular Delphi version, because I could easily drop support to some of them, which has been suggested for the official GExperts as well.

    Thomas Mueller this, in spades. We have a couple of legacy 2007 apps that get very occasional maintenance updates, but the cost/benefit of upgrading, sorting out components, handling Unicode changes and regression testing etc just isn't there. So they live in their own VM, and everything else is XE3, XE8 or, as of the last couple of weeks, Seattle.

    2 projects left in D7 until this week, now only one left (had a good reason to move one to D10) - which got its EOL note 7 years back - it will happen during 2017 - together with the remaining D2007 projects - Then everything is XE2 or newer - mostly D10.

    The Delphi 7 IDE is as fast as Notepad. Very important.

    Applications compiled in D7 working in Windows 10 is great
