Its been years since I tried Lazarus the last time..

Lazarus, is for those of you who doesnt know, A FOSS Delphi IDE, its look is almost identical to Borland Delphi 7 which I normally use. I decided to give it a go and downloaded it last night to try it out.

First impressions, nice. looks professional now. The interface does not look like its from the 90s, code editor works pretty well, and unlike the last time, it actually is ok to work in and it compiles fine.

This is certainly a good alternative for those who seek to try Delphi and wants a good FOSS alternative for the IDE.  By default, Lazarus will use the FPC (Free Pascal Compiler), which is an excellent compiler and works on a wide range of platforms as well.
