Given that a majority of modern programmers do NOT use goto (I'd say 1 out
of 1000 Euphorians advocate or would use it), it's disingenuous to suggest
that RDS' market will be less than OpenEu (or whatever it's called now).

I say "modern" to differentiate those who have learned programming recently
vs. those of us who started learning computer programming way back in the
80s, when goto was BASIC practice. :)
