But the key fact is they are VERY different tools. RB is much closer to a traditional low-level language, while RunRev definitively has an high level approach. This also split the target audience in two different categories and, from my experience, I doubt a RunRev user would be comfortable with RB and vice-versa.

they are different but similar:) The IDE is OK but complicated by the extensive use of popup menus to get to the numerous properties.

RR does a lot of work for you. I had a play this morning after reading the release notes and within about 10 minutes had an UB application which connected to my MySQL database at work and populated a listbox without writing a single line of code (and without reading any documentation). Whilst it's 'quirky' there are some features which are quite clever. For anyone who cares, the language is similar to Applescript so it feels somewhat like Facespan (ah, the memories).
