Well, its like this...4D is the best relational database for the mac but....
its got its problems.  Once one learns about the bugs (not printed) and makes
ones way thru the poor manuels, a solid database should be expected.  The time
it takes for a programmer to discover that the database has a problem, narrow
it down to a particular call, and call acius to discover that it is indeed a bug
could take some time.  This is the voice of frustrated experiance.  As far as
weather it is un-reasonable for development to take a year depends on the 
database and how complex it is.  Also, much depends on the programmer him/her-
self.
