Many of you remember that my old distributor dropped
my app in RBase and was trying to create a new app in
MS SQL and .Net. He started at least 3 years ago and
still does not have a working demo!
On top of that in Dec of 08 he sent out flyers saying
his app was 99.9% finished, and again in Dec of 09 he
said they were installing the app in offices....
Now, the funny part. He had doctors from all over the
country fly in to his office about 2 weeks ago to see
a live demo. He also setup live viedo conferencing to
show off his new creation. His app kept locking up and
had to be rebooted several times and cound not finish
the demo!
Worse yet, many of these offices pre paid up to 10k for
this app 3 yrs ago!
He claims he spent millions so far on this project, but
do not beleive him or feel sorry for him, his lips are
moving and he still owes me thousands in back pay.
R:Base Rocks
Marc,
I commend your perseverance, dedication, and support of R:BASE,
and willingness to share your personal experience.
Your story is no surprise to me nor anyone who has personally
experienced the power and has vested interest in R:BASE.
Did I mention that:
. There are full-time employees who have jobs because of R:BASE.
. There are developers who live pretty good lives because of R:BASE.
. There are others who have gotten full-time jobs at institutions,
without having a college degree, because of R:BASE.
. There are mission critical operations and applications serving
industrial needs because of R:BASE (some have tried to migrate,
wasted hundreds and thousands of dollars, and still using R:BASE).
. R:BASE has created many opportunities and will continue to bring
productive database development to the forefront.
. R:BASE Technologies will continue to provide the best of R:BASE,
and support those with a vested interest in R:BASE, and live up

In addition:
. Today, using the latest versions of R:BASE, we have the ability
