To me, this is competition and competition is good, very good.


Yes, it probably is nothing more than the grinding together of
competitive forces; but,

Unfortunately:

1.  A lot of small companies and their dedicated clients seem to be
     getting ground up in the process.

2.  Competition CAN be conducted in a gentlemanly fashion; but
     neither Apple nor Adobe seem to think that matters - maybe it
     doesn't from a commercial point of view; they both have enormous
    installed bases on which they can depend. However, it makes the
    world a whole lot more pleasant if competition can take place
    without infantile adverts and name-calling.

Competition is, undoubtedly, a good thing; and as the computer world
is dominated by Microsoft, Adobe and Apple one could argue that not
nearly enough is taking place.

Competition (rather like war [not something I would advocate])
development and innovation.

One of my sadnesses is that, at present, there seems to be no
company in direct competition with RunRev . . .  :)
