I believe it's a difference in the demands of the users. Because SC has 
been around so long, if SC4 shipped with *any* major bugs, it would be 
seen a major failure on the part of the SuperCard team, so the 
development cycle for this version was considerably longer than I think 
anyone hoped it would be. But the finished product was worth the wait.

SC's installed user base is not as tolerant of the development team's 
mistakes as users are on this list.
