I need help on commends related use of VisualWork ver2.0.
Any commends/experience on using VisualWork?
In environment:
      multi-platform: Mac, PowerMac, PC
      DBMS: Oracle
      Server Platform: IBM RS/6000 AIX ; HP HPUX;

We receive good sales talk : cross-platform, smalltalk language,
strong library support. But it seems there are not many companies
using VisuaWork, not even many prople hear about it, as front-end
develoment tools? (compare with Powerbuilder, SQLwindow, visualBasic)
Why? Marketing, Technical or Price issues?

Should we proceed?
