Just point them to the wildly popular Wiley Publisher's Dummies book:
Beginning Programming for Dummies 4th Edition recently released where
Revolution receives a lot of coverage, esp compared to ALL of the above.

That's very interesting - I had no idea that Rev was receiving any mainstream coverage as a platform. I'll have to take a look at that book next time I'm in a bookshop. Now that I think of it, it is obvious that any book that was really interested in getting someone started with programming (especially any GUI programming) should be using Rev as a teaching device.

However, I doubt it if would cut any ice with Dave's colleagues writing in C++, XML, Postscript, etc. :-)

Lynn, until I can get a look at that book, are you saying that his treatment of Rev is more favourable than the others? Do you know what the sales figures are for the book? If the answer to the first question is 'yes', and the second is 'a lot', then that should be good news for Rev sales.
