- BZZT! They wouldn't be legal copies. When one upgrades, the prohibition
- against multiple use applies to previous versions; i.e. to give away or sell
- them is a violation of Borland's particularly reasonable license agreement.
- What you probably need to do is contact Borland and see if they have any of
- the old versions still in a warehouse somewhere or something.
