A lot of schools are turning away from HyperStudio (not supported for the Mac any more, support for the PC seems to be waning) and looking for a replacement. In fact, at NECC (National Educators Computing Conference) our presentation is a comparison of five multi-media environments for those looking for a HyperStudio replacement. I think that Revolution should target this market; this may be what they're aiming for with DreamCard. I wish they hadn't gone with such a different name (RevCard or something), but that's beside the point. Now what they need to do is to become more high-profile and get some documentation out there aimed at teachers (guess I'll have to write that book I've been threatening to....). Now is the time to do it; in a year or two the education market will have settled on a new product. - marty -- Marty Billingsley ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) The University of Chicago Laboratory Schools _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
