  When we first started out designing PEX I stated that its largest initial
  following would come from the 2D "deferred graphics" folks in ECAD, defense,
  air traffic control and such.  (You know... the GKS users of the world! 8-)

  I maintain thats will be the case even as MCAD vendors scramble to prove
  their implementations on PEX-capable interfaces.  (Of course many of them
  got that capability for "free!")

  While I haven't seen many of these applications commercially yet, you can
  bet that they and hundreds of hip-pocket 2D "tools" are on their way....
