And the second page too. > I'm not understanding the reference exactly, but it's nice to see the > mention anyway, I think. It's a typical malinform comparison. They only highlight their 'advantages', like having to pay for it :) But seriously, I guess they are indeed referring to us, while JMol (with a capital M) is actually a different product [1] ! They mention distinct advantages over JMol, and then showing 3D graphics... We indeed do not do nice surfaces yet, *and* another feature we still don't have (yes, a application plugin is imminent) is model building. But they lack to mention that: 1. Jmol is not just freeware, it's open source ! 2. Jmol is not just an applet requireing internet connectivity but available as application too ! 3. Jmol is mostly a renderer! Not a full blown program, that's what the embedded Jmol panel is for ! (And they don't mention the programs that embed Jmol ! 4. Jmol runs on Windows/Linux/OS X too ! But indeed is an honour that they acknowledge that we compete !
