Review: REALbasic 2.02

on Director On Line. Here's the conclusion from the review:

For simpler to intermediate tasks, RB truly shines. You can quickly build a Mac (or even Windows) app without fussing with the almost pointless arcana that you are forced to pore through in C. For more advanced applications (and even database access), RB has some rough edges that make development in it a bit more difficult. But that is a very qualified statement. RB is an exceptional tool and succeeds in that it makes programming on your Mac as much fun as working with your Mac. Despite its flaws (and what app doesn't have them) it is a great tool that users of all ability levels will find useful...and even fun."
