While this may be heresy

Hi,

Well, in my opinion straight out of the box they are about the same.  
If you are used to other more traditional programming languages like  
C/C++, Pascal or Basic then you will probably have a harder time  
getting your head around the way that RunRev works. This is made even  
harder since the documentation for RunRev isn't that good and because  
there are silly problems that can bite you.

However, once you get into RunRev and start developing your own way  
of doing things (for instance I have my own Message Manager and  
Application Framework), then RunRev *really* starts to pay off. You  
can get things done really quickly, I'd say probably 50% faster than  
in  RealBasic.

Hope this Helps.

All the Best
Dave
