Good job! Very interesting. I was having a crash with 2.8 gm-2 that was 
also solved by removing the preferences file.

One guess about what might have happened is that there is a script error 
in the older prefs file that caused the startup sequence to abort. 
Throwing away the prefs and letting Revolution make a new one is a very 
easy solution.

You should get a prize for figuring this out. :)
