(More background on us: I get to tutor two advanced middle school students who are interested in programming, and in computer applications in scientific research. I had their parents buy them Rev back when it was $99 for an express license and they have really taken off with it. We developed a program last semester to run 1- and 2-dimensional cellular automata and they found some amazing things on their own with it. They showed their results at a presentation at the university here, demonstrating it live on Revolution, which I thought was much cooler than all the other fancy PowerPoints we had to sit through. We are continuing the project this semester and are developing a program to investigate multi-state CA. The student mentioned above has also made a good start at game programming on his own; he knows more about how Geoff Canyon's battle game works than I do. I just can't say enough about how great Rev is for teaching, and for getting students interested in how things work, and empowering them to go where they want with it. Keep it up RunRev, and don't forget about these kids with very few resources -- they'll be your customers and evangelists in a few years.)
