ReportBuilder is currently available for the Windows platform only.
There is currently not enough market demand for a Linux solution to justify the development and support costs. Thought it may change in the future, Borland and the assoicated third party component providers are currently losing a lot of money on the Linux market. Delphi 7 Studio now includes Kylix for free - this is a reflection of the poor sales of Kylix as a stand alone product.
We will continue to evaluate opportunities in the Linux market place as it develops. We will certainly make an announcement if this situation changes.
Thanks for the interest - we are quite interested in the needs of the developer market place!
Digital Metaphors is very excited about the .Net platform and Delphi for .Net.
The Digital Metaphors creative team is currently working towards creating RB4D4DN (ReportBuilder for Delphi for .Net). The time frame for a release is unknown at this time.
Borland is incrementally releasing Delphi for .Net previews and we are anxiously awaiting the final release of Delphi for .Net.
