OK, I've played with fusion for a little over an hour. That's not long but here's my take on the Net Objects product. I got the same feeling I had when I tried OS/2. Like windows but different. If you hit it with a hammer I think it wouldn't break. Everywhere you look more features. An amature could create a site with the wide selection of styles and it would look professional. Front page wizard, forget it, they are hokey. Many built in powerful features that I didn't get working in the little bit of time I spent with it but sound very encouraging. Rollover buttons, this would eliminate the need for java script buttons that light up and do fancy stuff when you cursor over them. Cascading style sheets. Very new and techy. Supposedly works with IE and Netscape. Superior media support, active x, java, the works. My only compaint is that the sample pages didn't have all these cool features loaded up. I like starting with live working examples and stealing or tweaking my stuff into it. No manual needed for that. Bottom line. If the marketing was behind this product with the funds to make it happen, it could give front page a run for the money. Keep in mind IBM affronts microsoft differently. Notes is touted as the best email by many big companies yet it doesn't have the market share like exchange. IBM sometimes just plays with the big boys and does well at it. Net Object is IBM and if they don't totally cut it loose it will succeed in IBM's market! I'M IN ON NETO! The upside is open 40, could be at 80 in six months. It wont price higher than $17 so you don't have to worry about all you profits being eating before you start. If it stumble and goes to even $12 big deal, $500 for the chance to make thousands. I like the chances! Ken . . .
