Axiant classes?

[Cummings, Ken P.]

How many medium to large size production systems are there in North America
using Axiant?  How many clients are using Axiant for new development?  Do
you have any statistics on the number of licences sold in 1998?

These are the sort of statistics that would convince me.  I am sure the new
version is a good product, and I'd love to believe Axiant has a future -- I
have nearly a decade of PowerHouse experience on three platforms and would
love to see a viable PC development path, but as of yet, I have not seen any
evidence that it is being used by the mainstream.  I do not know if a single
production installation, much less of one for a Fortune 500 company.

Prove me wrong.
