This assertion is wrong.  PowerPlant for Windows is not based on 
Altura's technology.   it is based on Metrowerks Lattitude and other 
Metrowerks developed technology.  

Metrowerks did use Altura's technology for our very early Windows hosted 
tools, and some things carried over when we went to PPxpn  I am fairly 
sure that PPxp  was developed in a black box without any knowledge of 
Altura technology and was not backwards engineered.
