I call up Borland at 800-523-7070 to find out about Java 2 debugging
support.

The answer "currently we do not have a product on the market" (which I
knew),
but worse "I'M NOT ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT WHETHER WE EVER WILL"

Excuse me? What do you mean, you won't tell your customers whether you
will ever
have a product supporting Java 2?

Well, you just lost a customer ... This is one of the most incredible
answers I
ever got from any sales person ...
