I scratched my head when I saw this one for the first time. AFAICR is a
bit more obvious... and means the same thing really.

It is only the next version of Delphi that I will buy. This is where
the 2.0 version of the .Net framework will be supported.

The broadcast said that the current development is Dexter, and that the
version AFTER that will support .NET 2.0.

He didn't say it was the next version of Delphi, he said it is the next
version he will buy.

I've been told several times what it means
but continue to forget ... it is such
a strange looking combination of letters.

The first time I saw IIRC, I thought it had something to do with
Internet Relay Chat.

I believe Andrew is referring to the Osborne computer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_Computer_Corporation
Specifically, this:
==========================
The final blow occurred in 1983, when Adam Osborne boasted about an
upcoming product months before it could be released, killing demand for
the company's existing products. It is unclear whether this boast was
about the Osborne Executive, which was released in May 1983 for $2,495
and featured a 7 inch (178 mm) screen and did not sell as well as its
predecessor, or, more likely, the Osborne Vixen, a smaller portable that
promised to offer compatibility not only with earlier Osborne models but
also with MS-DOS, allowing it to run software designed for IBM and
Compaq computers. Dealers rapidly started cancelling orders for the
Osborne 1.
Unsold inventory piled up and in spite of dramatic price cuts--the Osborne
1 was selling for $1295 in July 1983 and $995 by August--sales did not
recover. Losses, already higher than expected, continued to mount, and
OCC declared bankruptcy on September 13, 1983. This marketing blunder
came to be known as "Osborneing" and the phrase circulated in Silicon
Valley for the next decade.
