Be careful if you are buying this least expensive version of Builder 6.0 to develop simple applications to SELL (or as Borland seems to indicate even to USE for a business purpose). This was NOT a stipulation in earlier versions (Standard level), as far as I can tell. You can only use the 6.0 version as a 'learning version'. This may not be a problem for many programmers, and granted at this price this may be fine, but things have changed from earlier 'Standard' versions and before purchasing you should be aware of this. Go to Borland's website and check the license agreement in detail if you have concerns. You might want to snap up 5.0 Standard before it is gone (although you can't read the license agreement for 5.0 at Borland's website, I have seen discussions that this restriction on compensation is new only for 6.0). So, just be careful and be aware of the 6.0 restriction.
I have quoted part of the 6.0 license below:
Sect 4.3 SPECIAL TERMS THAT APPLY TO C++BUILDER 6.0 PERSONAL ONLY
...rights under this license to use the Product and to create Works solely for personal use. You may not use the Product or any Work for any commercial, business, governmental or institutional purpose of any kind ('Commercial Purpose'). [it seems that even charitable use is prohibited? - my comment].
... you may not receive any direct or indirect compensation for the distribution or use of your Works...
