Paul (and anyone else who would care to comment),

All the features you ascribe to ThinkTank sound great. For you, obviously, nothing in Windows has matched ThinkTank, but I am wondering what program comes closest to giving you these benefits. Maybe BrainStorm? How about MaxThink? I know there isn’t a lot of enthusiasm for MaxThink in this forum, because of the price and that it is written in Visual Basic, I believe. I gave it another try this weekend and had it do a few buggy things, too. But the concept behind it seems solid.

It is astounding that there has been so little fruitful work done in Windows to match those old DOS gems like ThinkTank and GrandView. Okay, that’s a refrain we’ve heard here countless times, but still…

Steve Z.
