- I think I MIGHT have read something about it in a magazine once (as an
- upcoming product), but Mr. Drew's reputation causes me to not be surprised when
- the software seems vaporware.
-
- I would imagine that he created the basic engine for it, but it probably
- didn't meet performance hype and wasn't any better than softwindows.. I'm SURE
- he wouldn't be able to get a significant share of the market, with SoftWindows
- being as popular as it is.. the development costs would be more than the amount
- he'd probably sell and the price he'd have to sell it at to be competitive with
- SW.
