Serious applications

[Thomas McGrath III]

3S,

You need to give Rev more than just a couple of hours to get a 
realistic feel for how it can help you.

I have turned a few people's addiction to Director upside down with my 
very first Rev product. The company I work for did not understand the 
import of REV as a RAD, BUT the outsource company (mostly Director 
users and flash, saw how much work I was able to get done using a RAD 
tool in such a short amount of time) went out and bought a copy of Rev 
and started learning it right away. I think they felt threatened by Rev 
versus Director for RAD.

The other thing is, if developed and designed properly a product 
produced in REV is not recognizable as a REV product BUT all Director 
end products look the same. If a tools can create a product that no 
longer looks like the tool it came from is a powerful statement about 
that tool. Director can not do this (easily).

So in my opinion that places REV above tools like Director but right 
below tools like Codewarrior which is where it should be. The speed 
increase in using REV for rapid application development and for 
prototyping is great.
