   I don't use Lazarus that much because a lot of the software I write I port   
   to DOS and OS/2 (on which Lazarus can't run) so I've not used it much but   
   there's a lot of good software that uses Lazarus.   
      
   Fun fact: Skype was originally written in Delphi (object-oriented Pascal for   
   Windows, like Lazarus/Free Pascal).  Microsoft's since ported it to C# after   
   purchasing Skype.
