Louis, Borland can state all what they want, but using this set of
components for 3 years in 2 and 3 tier applications I must say it is
not best solution. This components are directed to client-side
cacheing and client-side solutions of the problems which in most cases
are perfectly solved using general client-server balance of load. Of
course there is area where their benefits are determining factor but
it is far from general case.
