Why would a Delphi programmer use Lazarus as the IDE instead of using Delphi's IDE?

I've been very happy with the Delphi IDE for programming in Delphi.

But I've heard about the Lazarus programming environment, and I've also heard that some Delphi programmers use it instead of the Delphi IDE.

What are the advantages that Lazarus has over the Delphi IDE, and why would, or should a Delphi programmer switch to it?
