Tony I think you're missing something here if I may be so BOLD, since I'm never ever bold... ok anyway to be serious....
In the history of our community, there have been people who developed a product, created a market for it, that was evidently so interesting to one of the hardware/os vendors, that they got bought up. It's true. So I wouldn't say that it's not possible to write something NOT from an os vendor, and yet be a marketable *tool* (not business application). I believe, I've encountered several tools and systems programs that were third-party add-ons. And then I blink and suddenly... its part of Adds or whoever. _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
