Fwd: METACARD ACQUIRED BY RUN REV!!!

[Simon lord]

Wow.  See what happens when you only go through your lists once a 
week...

My feelings on this are mixed, on the one hand I'm hoping Scott got a 
sweet deal and can retire/relax after years of hard work.  I haven't 
read through all the RE:'s on this thread but if it hasn't been said 
yet then I'd just like to say thanks to Scott for everything he has 
done for me personally and for the list.

As for RunRev, I have no feelings about them or their products one way 
or another.  I will say this however, I truly hope that they maintain 
both UI's independently of each other.  After using MC for the last 12 
years I can honestly say that I'd probably ditch MC in a heartbeat if 
RunRev decided to only support their authoring environment (I'm having 
a hell of a time learning Flash - don't need more "OUIE GUI" to deal 
with).

UI arguments aside, I doubt I'm the only one that feels this way. Hell, 
after 12 years I kind of know where everything is.  Nothing can beat 
the simplicity of the MC interface!

I'd like to congratulate Kevin on building up his company to what it is 
today as well.

As Eminem would say, "that's my 10 cents, my 2 cents are free".
