We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of the first FireMonkey Beta version of our libraries - http://www.mitov.com/downloads/featured .

I hope you will enjoy our first FireMonkey release!

Visiting the Computer History Museum

Hi folks,

Over the weekend we had a chance to visit the Computer History Museum:
http://www.computerhistory.org/

It is a must see! Especially while they have the Charles Babbage's Difference engine.
You can see me here marveling at it :-) :


You can also see Melody obviously enjoying the role of the "Mad Scientist" :-) :

Here she is only reaching to the knobs, obeying the "Do not touch" sign ;-) .

I greatly recommend you visiting the place. There is so much we have forgotten or simply never knew about the early days of computing!

Cheers,
Boian

Delphi XE2 Update 2 compatible installs

Dear Customers,

RAD Studio XE2 Update 2 introduced some major changes in the VCL and FireMonkey libraries. The changes made some of our products incompatible with it.
To address the problem we have just released updated special installers for RAD Studio XE2 Update 2.

You can download the new installers from here:

Delphi XE2 Update 2 and FireMonkey

Hi Folks,

Embarcadero is working hard on rapidly improving Delphi XE2 and the FireMonkey support.
Unfortunately that comes with a price :-( . They just have released Update 2 and reportedly it introduces some big changes in the VCL and FireMonkey libraries. This requires our packages to be recompiled for Update 2 in order to be compatible.

We are working to make Update 2 compatible release in the next 2 days.

We are also working hard to make a FireMonkey version for Windows available probably sometime next week. We have all the packages ready, and are in process of creating the demos and the installs.

MAC, and iOS FireMonkey versions are also under way, and should become available soon!

All existing customers that have purchased or will purchase VCL version in less than 1 year before the FireMonkey version becomes available will get it for free! :-) .

With best regards,
Boian Mitov
