I'da think that if someone from fpTech had been with me the last two weeks in 
Chicago at the Aftermarket eForum and especially in Portland at OSCON, with all 
the traction that AJax and Web 2.0 applications seem to be steam rolling towards 
that they would see the power of fpEdits scaring up millions and millions of 
dollars of investment money.

The whole MTV generation (just turned 25 yesterday) doesn't know that something 
like "edits" even exists. Selling them the power of edits as plug-ins for AJax 
frameworks should be huge. At times I just wanted to scream out loud in 
ballrooms with a thousand people, "Yes, but it could be a thoudsand times better 
if the input field acted like I have had for almost twenty years with filePro 
edits!"

Ah, filePro, the best kept secret.

FWIW
