Peter:
As I understand it, Borland bought out Actor(not sure).  I have played with it 
a little and Borland C++ is OK.  The pitfalls of using a pure OOPS like Object1 
or Smalltalk do not occur as you are still in control at a low level.  I have 
not toyed with Actot directly, rumor has it that it is cumbersome.  ParcPlace 
sells an expensive Smalltalk win package that is supposed to be good - again no 
personnal exoerience.
The real question I have is - what are your business and tech requirements?
Depending upon these and your personnal(or groups) level of experience will 
determine which package to use.  An example being - no C experience, DBase
experience, short time frame, network database, minimal performance req.
use Object1, SQL, Win3, and LAN Manager.  With C experience, large system,
and tough performance criteria, use MS C 6.0, OS/2, SQL, and LAN Man.
All that remains the same changes.
Later.
