This is great news!

I of course bought it right away. Now I have a slideshow going right next to the floating CPU meter.

I gave it 4.6 stars rounded to five - there's always room for improvements... ;-)

It is encouraging that you're testing the waters and demonstrating that Clozure can be used to build applications for the app store.

Time to roll up the sleeves...
