   And solutions. You wouldn't want to encourage a false impression by 
forgetting about the solutions, would you?

   So why, exactly, *are* you using Rev? You clearly think Synopsis is the 
best thing since sliced bread, infinitely superior to Rev in at least *some* 
ways. Fine. It's your opinion, and you're welcome to it. But since you *do* think 
so highly of Synopsis, and you *do* think Rev just doesn't measure up, WHY 
ARE YOU BOTHERING WITH REV IN THE FIRST PLACE?

   You do persist in repeating yourself with regards to "a simple CLOCK 
FACE". What happens if a Synopsis user wants *his* clock face to differ, in some 
way, from the built-in "clock face object" Synopsis provides? Does Synopsis 
provide for *any* variants, or is the S-user stuck with the built-in model? If 
there's a range of available variants, what happens when none of them suit an 
S-user's needs -- is the S-user screwed, or can he alter things until he gets 
what *he* wants, as opposed to what Synopsis thinks he should be able to have?
