Borland Donates JBuilder to Eclipse

The Register reports that Borland plans on donating its venerable JBuilder IDE to the Eclipse consortium. According to Borland's chief executive Dale Fuller:

We will give customers something that's differentiated in the market and do it with a lot less investment on our part.

Fuller indicated that Borland expects to make money by charging enterprise users for support of the open source product.

This news makes one ponder "Is Eclipse the Commercial IDE Killer?"
