As a result, I have now broken several keyboards! :) -- Paul E. Schoen Back to top Bjorge Sæther Guest Posted: Fri Feb 03, 2006 8:27 am    Post subject: Re: Delphi causes broken keyboards? Paul E.

I used to wear out my Ctrl - key and my F9 key. I developed the habit of hammering the F9 key as hard as I could while I threw myself back in the chair, thinking something like: "Hah! Try *that* one, you m*****f****!!" I'm getting older now, and, besides, I started working for the State. I also know that the problems are not related to compilation time, it emerges much, much later. Bjørge !

In any case its "strong typed" (ie inherent strength) not "forcefully typed" (ie expressive strength) <g>. This English is soooo confusing <g>.
