Lickable? I don't think we ever considered oral hex for controlling
the UI. Talk about potential for virus problems....

It was all very functional, very good looking and extremely flexible for
look/layout/etc. Needed some more optimisation to really run fast enough
on the appallingly slow machines that potential customers wanted to use
(200MHz pentium 2s etc) but it was getting there.

Talk about a failure of the marketplace.
