Borland fans raise $26k for Haiti

"SCOTTS VALLEY -- Borland aficionados from all over the world contributed nearly $26,000 to a Haiti relief fund during an online auction of corporate memorabilia that involved items dating back to the early days of the former Scotts Valley software developer tools company."

Article in Santa Cruz Sentinel

Thanks to all who donated items, and thanks to everyone who bid, blogged, and participated in the auctions!

I blame Allen... MORE STUFF!!!

I can't help myself... I have to list the coolest items that people find...

Allen walks in to a meeting late yesterday afternoon and holds up a Delphi 1 box that he found in his office - he finally realized we're moving... :) :) :)

Anyway, he says "I'll sign it!"... OK, I'm sold... Here you go:

Delphi 1 autographed by Allen Bauer!

While we're at it, I blame myself as well. Deep inside a drawer I found a pristine BRICK of "Delphi Developers Do It Faster!" bumper stickers.

Just imagine what you could do with 50 stickers!!! I didn't actually count, the number of stickers is an estimate. Could be more, could be less... Judge for yourself in the picture at eBay.

Enjoy!
