| A FireMonkey testimonial. |
According to Embarcadero, FireMonkey is the fastest path to Windows 8 and Mac OS X Mountain Lion: "With FireMonkey FM
2 you can now quickly give your
applications the Windows 8 UI style and user experience yet still deploy
to older Windows versions and Retina ready Mac OS X with native UI
fidelity. Your applications will run great on Windows 8 PCs and x86
based tablets including Microsoft's Surface Pro and you can take
advantage of Windows 8 capabilities such as gestures, live tile support,
full screen behavior, sensor components and deploying natively to Mac
OS X with a native user experience."
