Delphi developers know the value of small, agile teams. For years, they have outperformed larger development organizations through skill, expertise, and the right choice of tools. Delphi 2006 provides the ultimate productivity "force multiplier", eliminating tedium and maximizing coding efficiency through a revolutionary Enterprise Core Objects (ECO) framework, an enhanced visual component library, and a fully integrated suite of modeling and ALM tools. Part of Borland Developer Studio, Delphi 2006 also includes complete RAD support for C++ and C# in addition to Delphi Win32 and Delphi .NET programming languages. Borland Delphi Professional is designed for individual developers, ISVs, and smaller organizations building desktop and Web applications with local database connectivity. New in Delphi 2006, the Professional edition now includes select ECO features that provide common desktop application services such as object-relational mapping and transparent local xml object persistence.

Works pretty much like the last version
Strengths: New development environment interface, previous versions of applications do not require much (if any changes)
Weakness: Receive a lot of unexplained (uncorrectable) exceptions on exiting of development environment
We recently upgraded from Delphi 7 to Delphi 2006. The development interface has changed greatly. The biggest problem is finding widget attributes in the Object Inspector. In Delphi 7, they were alphabetical and more easily found. Generally we like the newer environment and it works well except for the unexplained errors on exit.
