"I hope that one of these days somebody will do an impartial real-world study. This was appears impartial, but definitely not real-world."
A few years ago, I read several comparisons between Visual Basic and Delphi (my favorite programming language). Of all that I read (and I know VB has had some major upgrades since then), only 1 decided in favor of VB. In only that one did the listed benchmarks for VB surpass D. There were two problems, though.
1. The testers were VB gurus who had never used Delphi before.
2. Microsoft had funded the study.
Nope, no bias there.
I'm confused, if they ALL chose Delphi ... where's the bias?
