Troy: It is a little unfair. As has been pointed out, most of the
apps you mentioned were:
1) Created way before RB
2) Created by huge programmer teams
3) Most were "killer apps" in their time - they filled a needed gap
and were usually first to market
I suspect that most RB sales have been to individuals, or very small
programmer teams, and they would be very unlikely single-handed to
write a Photoshop killer for example. Even the mighty Adobe has had
an uphill struggle trying to match/supercede QuarkXpress with
InDesign for years... And the OpenOffice project is still a long way
from matching the MS version.
Of course it is unlikely that such an app could be built without
project control tools...

Jef Raskin, the Mac's original project leader before Steve Jobs took
the role, and the "father of the Mac": "In 1979, I specified a long
list that covered most of the things we would do with it [the Mac]
though I missed four major uses: gambling, pornography, sending spam
and spreading viruses."
