Is being a good cross-platform tool good enough? [was Re: Is Rev too "Mac focused"?]

Frank.....

Pardon me, but this comment seemed a little strange to me. "Just 
another cross-platform tool"? What others are there? RealBasic has been 
mentioned. Maybe Director (though it's not for general-purpose apps).

I think the shoe belongs on the other foot. If Rev attempts to be "just 
another Windows tool" (or for that matter "just another Mac tool") it 
will miss its opportunity to be the best damn cross-platform tool 
around.
