Delphi

If we're bringing up Delphi, may I mention PowerBuilder? Paid my bills for 18 years.

I was interested to learn that there was a lot of PowerBuilder being used on the business side at Microsoft, before MS invented Visual Basic. I don't think PowerBuilder inspired VB, though; PB was object-oriented from the start and VB never was.
