Well, I think the SuperCard example ultimately works against the "someone tried it before and failed miserably so it shouldn't be tried again" line of reasoning. A lot of us aren't using SuperCard because it doesn't run on Windows. I certainly share the *impression* that RunRev is a much healthier company -- perhaps in no small part because of its xplat ability. RunRev Studio's tagline is, "Code once, deploy everywhere," isn't it? One company's albatross is another's eagle. Or perhaps I mean, "blue jay?" Going to the RunRev homepage I see a cute little banner, "Avoid Extinction with Universal Binary Support" ... the sad dinosaurs are SuperCard users? _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
