- My take on Prograph (after having used it sparingly) is that it's an incredibly
- fun and stimulating environment, but that the lack of a cross platform strategy
- makes it a poor choice for implementing real world applications. I understand
- that the folks at TGS are developing a strategy, which will hopefully include a
- schedule and list of target platforms. Also support for DLL's and SLM will be
- very important as a mechanism for extending the environment. Any thoughts?

- P.S. If TGS one day implements their dataflow architecture to allow
- transparent support of multiple CPU's (such as multiple Radius Rockets?) we'll
- have a beautiful multi-processing solution.
