No argument here.  In fact I tried to discuss paying RunRev to implement 
better multimedia support on Linux six years ago, for the same project that 
I'm returning to now - because we were deploying fifty (it's now nearer 100) 
units, I hoped the savings on the Windows license could have paid for some 
RunRev development, to the benefit of everyone.  Unfortunately the timing 
wasn't right and it couldn't happen.

Still hoping...
