I haven't done any testing myself yet, but if it is so, it's pretty ... 
ehm .... Our company paind 700 USD for /Command, which does not seem to 
be up-to-date enough to compete with free implementation? I think that 
once DocKimbel releases his free FastCGI protocol, someone else does 
ODBC library wrapper and  there is no reason anymore for anyone to buy 
/Command, as everything else is in View/Pro ... ;-) ... ah .... I forgot 
there is no Core/Pro, so Unix users would still be required to buy 
Command, because of that X11 gfx thing ....
