Dreamcard, am I missing something?

[Dan Shafer]

I'm not 100% sure of this and I have no way of testing it, but as I  
recall, if you double-click a Rev stack on a machine that has the  
Dreamcard Player installed and not Revolution, the player launches  
and runs the stack.

I do know that if you drag a Rev stack onto the Dreamcard app, it  
launches it with a brief splasher at the startup, which you say is fine.

I don't have a single machine in my office without Rev stored on it  
so I can't test  this but I suspect I'm right.
