I don't consider Prograph a replacement for Bedrock although it may be a
replacement for MacApp. I have a love/hate relationship with MacApp. I like
what it does for me, I get irritated by what it sometimes does to me. I
suspect Prograph is similar. The paradigm shift is real but I think somewhat
overblown. If you are going quality work, most of it will be done in design,
not coding. Whatever horn of plenty the paradigm shift gives us, it is giving
it to us in the least productive (and least interesting) part of engineering.

Prograph can't be a replacement for BedPebbles (they ain't rocks yet) unless
it becomes a cross development tool. I'm not aware I can develop on a Mac
under Prograph for that accursed evil-empire inspired machine, the PC. Now,
if you folks could pull that off, I for one would be happy to star in the
commercial selling that snake-oil. Might even take some hints from Pepsi
commercials....
