This was on Compuserve.  It sounds like the battle between Superpaint
and Fullpaint is going to be a fun one to watch.

I was amazed Friday morning at what a corporate buyer told me.  
He was phoning to ask for a comparison of SuperPaint and 
FullPaint.  I game him some facts and mentioned that he should 
look at the review of SuperPaint in Macworld.  He already had.  
And, he had already talked to Ann Arbor Softworks.  Their comment 
to him was 'half the features mentioned in the article will never 
make it into a released product'.  Amazing.  Over a week ago Ann 
Arbor purchased from us at the Dallas Macworld Expo a version of 
SuperPaint that we sold there that lacks only _two_ of the 
features mentioned in the review - color printing and the free 
rotate, distort stuff (of Click Art Effects).  Color printing is 
done now, and we've licensed the code for Click Art Effects from 
T/Maker and are in the process of plugging it into our code right 
now.  Ann Arbor knows this.  All we have left for version 1.0 are 
Grids, Rulers and final testing.  I resent what Ann Arbor is 
doing because it is untruthful.  I just wanted to set the record 
straight.  I will accept any and all criticism of us because we 
have taken so long to finish SuperPaint.  That is justified.  
Untruths are not.  I think what you're seeing are the actions of 
some rather desperate people.  -- Charlie Jackson, Silicon Beach
