Revolution Media has this limitation to narrow the scope of applications it
can create to multimedia type projects that "own" the computer they are
running on - meaning its great for a presentation, multimedia type game,
kiosk and the like, but not so for multi window applications. At $49,
Revolution Media is an extremely powerful package. If you want to build more
sophisticated, professional applications, then Revolution Studio is the way
to go. And thanks to the major price drop that happened not all that long
ago, a Media -> Studio upgrade is an even better deal.
If you already have Enterprise at home - I shouldn't have to be selling you
on Studio or Enterprise ;-)
