  21. I'd figured that -- though I'm impressed with the speed of E/L now,

  28. Actually, I was more concerned with people deciding that they didn't
  29. want their code running on anything that wasn't a Real Mac, for
  30. licensing reasons or whatever. That may be just as paranoid...
  31. it sounds like you're more likely to have people working with you
  32. rather than against you.
