Paul, the dates and capabilities you quote are sort of irrelevant. 
Many of us would like to forget OS9 but it is still quite widely used 
in some market segments, like it or not. The fact that Chevy Impala 
is not produced for many years does not mean that everybody should 
stop producing parts for it. We discussed this so many times on the 
list, so let's not start that again.

Joe is talking about broken promises... RR's web site stated for long 
that "Revolution 2.7 for Mac OS 9 will be released soon".
