Where does survive the inventive user?

[Bob Sneidar]

That is a way of looking at things I suppose. But as I have said before, the purpose of a business is to make money. That may offend some, but if Apple does not succeed, then someone else will. They will be the bogie then. If RunRev had not succeeded then we would not have our beloved Livecode. 

The Mothership (by which I think you mean RunRev) did succeeded, and so we have the opportunity to succeed. Large business enterprises always seem to some to be evil giants, until we as individuals succeed fairly nicely, and find that we are now working for one, or better yet are the CEO of one.
