Just a little note, Final Scratch was invented and patented by a
company from the Netherlands called N2IT. That was by at least 1999,
if not 1998. It originally ran on BeOS, but then Stanton bought it
and (someone) ported it to Linux. From the website it looks like
they'll be porting it to Mac OS9 and OSX as well.
