Major apps developed with Revolution? (on Mac OS X)

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Kevin,

If you like, check out Salery at <http://www.salery.biz>. This  
application is created with Revolution for Mac, Windows and Linux. I  
think it is exemplary of the type of application you are thinking of,  
including the user-base/success. I know of a few more applications  
that are created with Revolution and I am sure their developers will  
be happy to introduce them here by themselves. Another rather  
successful shareware application from the Economy-x-Talk collection  
is the conversion utility DIFfersifier.

Another very impressive product is HyperResearch, which is a fully  
commercial application. Although I don't have any data on sales, I  
think it is rather successful. You can find it here: <http:// 
www.researchware.com/hr/downloads.html>

Yet, the question is not whether the Revolution environment can make  
successful software. It all depends on what you do with it. I can't  
think of an application that cannot be made with Revolution, as long  
as it doesn't rely too heavily on (3D) graphics.

Best,

Mark
