I'm getting a little tired of seing this stuff. This article and
several others have appeared as advertisement for this product. 
As I recall this is not what the net is for. 

I am a dissatisfied owner of Prototyper. I have send bug lists to 
Mr. Smethers and recieved no reply. I was mislead at Macworld when I bought
it: '...sure, it works FINE in multifinder...' [sic] when there was a 
release note inside the manual saying otherwise. The thing crashes 
and behaves strangely mose every time I use it. It is also missing
some crucial functionality. 
To date I have recieved no indication of a bug fix release or anything else 
for that matter.

I am sad...
