Delphi is far more widely used than Pascal.

YEs. Probably the Borland/Inprise web site. It was given away free on the covers on magazines in the UK 4 or 5 years ago.

VB2005 Express is also available for free

It also includes a serial port driver, although the serial port is little limited and takes quite a bit of understanding. Watch for m article on using the serial port in VB2005 Express slated to appear i Circuit Cellar late this year. (I am still waitinng for the issue it ha been assigned to).

You probably should look closely at the debug support, there are a lot of languages out there - compilers are common, good IDE+Debug is less common.

See the other comments on 'free Delphi' variants, due next month.

Also, this XDS package has recently gone 'free download',

This compiles Oberon/Modula-2 Pascal derivatives, for Win and Linux
