Yet, a true blockbuster app has never been produced in RB. Why is
that? Maybe because of its cross-platform nature? Maybe because of
its lack of tools for development teams? For whatever reason, it
hasn't been done.

Not to prolong this thread, but why is this an issue? I don't care (in
general) what other people have done with RB; I care about what *I*
can do with RB.

Some people care that a tool is general purpose enough to write the
next Photoshop (or whatever).
That it's general purpose enough to be applied to nearly ANY project.

Desiring such a thing usually relegates one to C/C++ or some other
similar low level language.

Lots of "killer apps" are written in Obj-C or Obj-C++. But that's mostly because Obj-C does not stop you from using C++!

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.
